Urgent request: 120 fps support for dead by daylight on Xbox séries s
Hello Behaviour Interactive Team,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing this message with great respect and passion on behalf of myself and many members of the Dead by Daylight community. I want to request the addition of a 120 FPS performance mode for Dead by Daylight on Xbox Series S.
Dead by Daylight is a game that is played every single day by thousands of dedicated players, including myself. It is fast-paced, intense, and requires quick reactions, precise movement, and smooth camera control. Currently, the game is limited to 60 FPS on Xbox Series S, even though the console and many modern 120Hz monitors fully support 120 FPS.
Adding 120 FPS would not only make the gameplay smoother and more responsive, but it would also significantly increase daily engagement, because the game would feel modern, competitive, and much more enjoyable for longer sessions. Players would naturally want to play every day, and more players would join or return to the game regularly.
Here are some important reasons why this feature is crucial:
1. Superior Control and Responsiveness
Higher framerate drastically reduces input lag, allowing both killers and survivors to react faster. Movements, loops, chases, and tight camera turns would feel more natural, precise, and enjoyable. This is especially critical in a game where reaction time can determine the outcome of a match.
2. Fluid, Clear, and Competitive Gameplay
Dead by Daylight is all about fast decisions, tracking opponents, and quick reactions. At 120 FPS, every chase, vault, and sudden camera movement becomes smoother, clearer, and easier to manage. This would create a more competitive and satisfying experience for daily players.
3. Daily Engagement and Retention
As mentioned, Dead by Daylight is played every single day. Implementing 120 FPS would make the game feel like a next-gen title, encouraging players to play more frequently, stay longer, and enjoy every session to the fullest. More people would return to play, and new players would be attracted, increasing the active player base and overall community activity.
4. Long Sessions and Comfort
Smoother gameplay is easier on the eyes and allows players to engage for longer periods without strain. Many dedicated players spend hours daily on ranked matches, events, or just casual gameplay. 120 FPS would make these sessions more comfortable and enjoyable.
5. Alignment with Modern Gaming Standards
Many other next-gen games on Xbox Series S already support 120 FPS. By adding this feature, Dead by Daylight would remain competitive and appealing to players with high-refresh-rate monitors, showing that the game evolves with technology and player expectations.
6. Community Demand and Impact
This request has been voiced by countless players repeatedly. Adding 120 FPS would show the community that their voices are heard, and that Behaviour Interactive is committed to improving the daily player experience. It would strengthen the community, encourage daily play, and demonstrate that the developers truly care about the player base.
Even a performance-focused mode with slightly reduced graphics would be enough to deliver the benefits of 120 FPS. In a competitive and reaction-based game like Dead by Daylight, gameplay smoothness is far more important than visual fidelity.
Dead by Daylight is a game we love, and your team has done an incredible job providing updates, balancing, and new content. Adding 120 FPS support on Xbox Series S would transform the daily experience for players, making the game more playable, enjoyable, and engaging for hours every day. This would likely attract even more daily players, increase retention, and show that Behaviour Interactive listens and responds to community needs.
We, the players, ask that you seriously consider this request. Implementing 120 FPS would be a massive improvement for the community, and it is something that the majority of players would welcome wholeheartedly. It is not just a technical upgrade—it is a chance to enhance the daily joy, competitiveness, and satisfaction of thousands of players worldwide.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this message and for all the work you do to maintain and improve Dead by Daylight. We hope this request for 120 FPS support will be seriously considered in a future update.
The game is played every day, by many of us, and 120 FPS would make it feel modern, smooth, and irresistible to play daily—truly next-gen for Xbox Series S.
