Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Keyboard and mouse support on console.

Most large cross platform multiplayer games have mouse and keyboard support on console, however Dead by Daylight is not one of them. There is a problem with this that the devs refuse to understand and it is that there are clear advantages to having kb/m. For example.

Trickster: is easier to aim as. Is more precise with aiming and doesn't have the constant recoil that you feel on controller. Is a completely different killer on pc than on console

Huntress, plague, clown : more precise aim as well.

Oni: can do a full 180° with his power

M1 killers: can counter 360s and can turn while they hit faster.

Blight: can turn more during his rushed swings.

Singularity: same as trickster and can aim smoother and not jitter around while aiming.

Wesker, Cenobite, Gunslinger, pyramid head, artist, bubba, and Billy: smoother aim with their powers as you can precisely move with their powers instead of making small jumps of movement

And that is just for killers. Survivors get the advantages of full 360s on a whim, moonwalking, quickturning, better flashlight aim.

The devs have stated in previous QA streams that they WONT add kb/m support but im here to say Its time we console players get kb/m support on our platforms.
