Which killer is getting changed next?

The last update we got on a killer that was major was Legion and Ghostface and that was 1 year ago almost. I know you probably won’t answer me but can we get some enlightenment on who is getting changed next?

My guesses are either Twins or Sadako. Who do you think should be looked at next?

    Twins were confirmed during a livestream around the time of the Legion/Ghostface rework/add-on pass to be the next in line for a rework and some general TLC.

    However, they bumped Nurse ahead of the Twins. Not sure if it was due to community noise regarding nurse, or complications regarding reworking the Twins. My guess is a partial combination of both, plus some other factors we are likely not aware of (nor do I think we need to be).

    I am eagerly waiting for the Twins rework/update. I don't feel there is enough available data about which killers should be next (aside from Twins), so I trust BHVR's decision. I just always want the reworks to be more ambitious changes that might make things spicy and require a hotfix, opposed to safety soft number tweak that can sometimes feel unimpactful on an individual's perspective level (opposed to an aggregate of data from 1000s of matches).


    I know he is known for having one of the larger reworks, but I would be super interested to see what a reworked Freddy looks like in today's DbD environment.

    hopefully we will see a mix of PTB Freddy and new Freddy (I do like gen teleport and alarm clocks, very fitting). His current state is just so sad in general considering the source material..

    I'd assume twins based on what other posters says, followed by myers. He is in a pretty bad state, and has some really problematic addons that need to be removed.

    Either twins or myers

    I know a lot of people say Twins but it's entirely possible changes to them were scrapped

    The person who said they were being looked at left BHVR (Patrick)

    I think Artist might get a change or two. Addon pass for Myers/Freddy/Hag

    I hope twins / blight addons , i think sadako just needs a couple of buffs but nothing extreme IMO

    Twins need a rework. Blight needs an add-on pass. Myers probably also needs a rework, but might be hard with the licensing.

    Hopefully blight, some of his addons needs a buff so he’s more viable.

    Hey as long as they completely gut alch ring and compound 21 or whatever it's called I'm down

    I was completely joking.. 😂

    But since we’re here… why iri tag? The amount of skill / bump knowledge / map knowledge that goes into getting value out of iri tag is substantial. You will rarely see a blight running iri tag. Not even some of the good blight mains can get value out of it.

    Was a typo

    I meant the other iri addon, the one that lets blight insta break pallets/applies hindered.

    Iri tag is the instadown addon that literally i've seen 1 person use and that's lilithomen going for speedruns. Nobody and I mean nobody uses that addon

    Ok so we agree then.

    Alch ring and C33 ( hinder / pallet break) are his problematic addons.

    I think they have moved on to more QoL and perk changes.

    Maybe they'll give more information during the aniversary. It's saved to assume that planned twin changes were either scrapped or delayed.

    Most likely delayed

    Should be Twins. They confirmed Twins would be reworked over a year ago. I hope they won't try something like Ghostface / Legion on them, though. Twins probably need more excessive reworks.

    After that, I hope they'll have a look at some of their older killers. Freddy, Myers, Billy, Doctor, Trapper and Clown come to mind. Not all of them need huge reworks but some small buffs or changes here and there would go a long way.

    Sadako is a case for herself. The condemned play style is pretty viable and we don't really know, if it's an exploit. Some words from the devs would be nice. As well as some buffs to her chase in case that is an exploit.

    If the Twins update was referred to as major and we got a good update for Nurse, I'm REALLY hyped to see what they do if they didn't call the Nurse changes major.

    Was supposed to be Twins but it seems they cancelled that as we're not expected to see a big killer rework like that atleast for another 4 and a half months since it'll be after the anniversary chapter whatever that may be.

    I would like to see a Billy change but sadly BHVR already deleted him from the game

    Don't give up hope. One day Spacebilly will come back. He always does.

    1. Freddy

    2. Twins


    Blight needs a minor addon-nerf (Alchemist Ring, Comp. 33).


    These SHOULD be the priorities.


    I am not sure if I would want a mix of OG Freddy and current Freddy. I like his fake-teleports, but I think without any power in the chase but "Pull into Dream with Aurareading" it could be more scary.

    A lot would like to see Pallets / Snares together, some other would love to see a buffed version of OG Freddy.

    One thing is sure: He needs changes more than any other killer.
