Survivor Activity HUD

New HUD icons for Survivors will show what they are currently working. Additionally, a small pair of Entity claws will signify which Survivor is currently being chased.

Challenge Tracker

You'll never forget how many Totems you've cleansed again! Your challenge progress will occasionally appear during the match and when completed.

Queuing Experience

Forgot to select a challenge? No need to cancel matchmaking, you can now browse the Archives while searching! Killers can also spend Bloodpoints on other Killers while matchmaking.

Balance Changes

We've made changes to The Nurse, The Knight, and the Eyrie of Crows.

  • The Nurse's Blink Attacks are now considered Special Attacks. Her add-ons have also been reviewed and rebalanced.
  • The Knight has received a series of changes to make longer guard paths more effective.
  • The Eyrie of Crows has received new tiles and layout changes, making it easier to traverse and more thrilling in chases.
