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.

Killers Mains all have the same problem when it comes to special events...

..We get to see unique variations of all the survivors have and will never get to use. For us its a matter of "Oh look... its a bloodpoint offering..."


How it could be?

Imagine getting special addons with increased strength. These special rare items are only for mabye 3 or 4 addons but will either offer increased % - making them something worth hanging on to. Or maybe they could have unique event style gameplay - Kind of like how hte brown addons changed a lot of how klillers work.

    They've done this before. In fact I still have some, and I think they're still useable.

    Halloween 2020 killers could obtain a Blight Serum, effectively it was an item that gave killers an additional power instead of their own, which mimicked Blights rush.

    The serums were kind of fun but also I lost count of how many times I accidentally activated them intending to use my normal power and blasted myself into a wall. 🤦‍♂️

    It would be neat if we got an item like this every Halloween that mimicked the most recent original killer's power.

    So now it would be Dredge. I'd say an item that can trigger 20 seconds of Nightfall. Would be pretty fitting for Halloween, and it could increase the killer's movement speed by a small amount for the duration too.

    Would be neat to activate it right at the start of a game, make the survivors thing they're playing a Dredge, then suddenly they get exposed by Ghostface!

    Yeah that was awful though XD

    Can you imagine,


    Trapper starts with all his traps - all his traps glow

    Spirit has can see the outline of surviors - spirit leaves a trail after her

    Clowns bottle have a massive area = but it only lasts half aslong / maybe has cool effect

    Myres can take you out of the locker and stab you up - The mori takes extra time


    the list is endless and the possibilities ...

    but the BEST thing about this? It means BHVR can test new things and abilities on a live server (PTB is trash, everyone just dc's).
