The Dead by Daylight 5.3.0 mid-chapter patch sees massive balance changes to five killers, the hatch, and totem interactions.
Dead by Daylight released its 5.1.0 mid-chapter patch. The focuses are fixing console versions to run consistently, server interactions and prioritization, character models, and reworking The Trickster.
The new 4.7.0 mid-chapter patch in Dead by Daylight shows a clear focus on accessibility and balance.
Dead by Daylight released their newest mid-chapter update right before the Halloween event. Now that the game has calmed down and the endless ebony moris have been put away, I can give you a clearer look at how the game has changed for better or worse.
The Mid-Chapter Patch tweaked a few things here and there (the aura change is going to get patched out soon, so it’s not even worth addressing), but the main attraction is the rework of The Hillbilly and The Cannibal (Leatherface). Hillbilly has been one of the top killers since the game first began, a chainsaw wielding mountain man with massive map control and a one-shot down. Leatherface, meanwhile, has existed in the game as a way to get Barbecue & Chili, a tracking and BP point for killers that let’s you see where all the survivors are on a map when someone is hooked. The two chainsaw killers were nowhere near each other in ability or popularity and Behaviour Interactive wanted to address that.
