Make Current Challenge Visible in Pause Menu when in a Match

Discussion title says it all.

Sometimes it's nice to reflect on the specifics on the Challenge.

I tend to select a challenge and then forget what it is after starting. ADHD causes short term goldfish memory sometimes, and I can't recall if I selected a different one than I settled on, got distracted and didn't select it, or perhaps I misread it on accident and can't review the specifics of the challenge.

ie:

"Oh 25 seconds, I thought it said 15 seconds"

"Oh this is a 'Killer Glyph Challenge', that's why it's not showing up"

"In a SINGLE match, not accumulatively over several games!"

"Oh, I thought I selected the challenge but since I didn't I will ignore trying to achieve it until this session ends"

    I really like this idea. Together with the options to view your daily missions while queueing for a game.

    This would be nice, it happens to forget the challenge you selected, especially if you did it the previous time you played and forgot to check them before playing.

    It would be nice, if you saw progress too, so you know that you finished it already, or how much you are still missing.

    I still wish challenges had a pop up to show progress. Nothing obtrusive, just like the bloodpoint score events. There's a lot of them that leave me questioning if I'm doing them right like hiding within a specific range of the killer, the ones where you have to point at the killer. There's a lot where I'm sure I end up doing the challenges way more than necessary just in case some of the time I do them they don't count. It would be great to see them progress to know they're working.

    I feel you on this, very similar with me. I put the challenge on and by the time the game starts I've completely forgotten what challenge it is unless I write it down - my memory for things like that is truly awful. I do think this would be a nice QoL thing.

    Would also be really cool if the game selected a random challenge for a role you play if you didn't equip one.

    I'm the same as Mandy. I cannot recall the amount of times I look at my challenge whilst waiting for a lobby to ready up then just after the match loads I cannot remember what my challenge was lol.

    I would like this feature too, nice QoL for us forgetful people.
