Another month, another major update from the Dead by Daylight devs. This month they’ve got a bunch more underutilized or otherwise unfun Perks they’re changing, sometimes with significant shifts in how they work. We’re also getting some significant changes to Skull Merchant, and minor changes to Hillbilly, Twins, and The Unknown. There’s a new Mori system as well, letting you Mori the final survivor regardless of your current Offering.
It’s a notable shift that’s happened in BHVR’s focus over the past few months, away from larger systems changes (with a few exceptions) and towards offering a wider variety of viable strategies and Perks. It’s obviously not fun facing the same Killer or Survivor loadout over and over — variety is the spice of life, after all.
