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.

Binding of Kin content is lackluster

Binding of Kin is the upcoming chapter set to release sometime next month and we just got a preview of the changes that will be implemented to the Killer ( Charlotte & baby Victor) but even with these changes I feel that the content in this Chapter is severely bad lets discuss and list why.

  • Perks - The perks for both Survivor and the Killer are very situational and dull, you will never see any of these perks be used in a public or Scrim match unless it's for meme content produced by creators. These perks have almost no synergy with other perks and are not worth using in their current state.
  • No new Realm - as we all know by now the last Chapter that introduced Blight did not offer a new map and it's sad to see that this upcoming chapter will also not introduce a new map.
  • The Twins (Killer) - The Twins felt extremely weak and unpolished in the PTB but with the upcoming changes I fear that it will not be enough to make them viable in high level play, at this point you might as well announce that Demogorgan is the new killer because the Twins do nothing better that Demo (a existing killer on the roster) already does.
  • So if the perks are useless, the killer is a discount Demo, there's no new map, no new balance changes and the survivor is just a new skin with different voice, then what content are we exactly getting?

    Strongly disagree about the Survivor perks. These are the most interesting new Survivor perks in a long time, and it's nice to actually be excited for a new Survivor for once.

    Completely agree about the lack of new Realms.

    And as for the Twins themselves, this feels like the Blight all over again. On the PTB he was garbage and it looked like the chapter would be terrible, but after getting tweaked he was a viable killer. Twins could very well turn out the same way.

    Let's not forget that the Blight PTB was a week old
