Features & Content
Many in-game objects in Dead By Daylight haven't been changed significantly since the game's launch. As part of our ongoing effort to enhance the game's visuals, many of these objects got visual updates in this patch to bring them closer to our long-term vision for the appearance of the game. Some realms also got visual updates, with more coming later in future patches.
- Visual updates of several common in-game objects:
- Visual update of the Generators, including changes to models, animations and vfx. The Survivor repairing animations and vfx were also updated.
- Visual update of the Pallets, including models and VFX.
- Visual update of the Lockers.
- Visual update of the Chests, including the model and changes to the Survivor's interaction. This Survivor interaction has been updated
- Visual updates to some maps, including additions of breakable walls:
- Springwood - Updated Badham Preschool Maps I - V
- Yamaoka Estate - Updated Family Residence and Sanctum of Wrath
- Both Springwood & Yamaoka Estate realms will have an increase appearance rate during week 1 of the PTB.
- Update aiming when using the flashlight. Up to 4.1.0, the flashlight would aim up and to the right of the center of the screen. In 4.1.0, the aiming animation was updated, which caused the flashlight to aim more towards right of center. Now, the aim should be squarely in the center.
