Dead by Daylight 

Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer survival horror game developed by Behaviour Interactive, where players engage in one-versus-four matches. In this asymmetric gameplay, one player assumes the role of the Killer, while the other four players take on the roles of Survivors. The objective for the Survivors is to escape the trial by repairing generators scattered throughout the map to power up the exit gates.

On the other hand, the Killer's goal is to catch and impale the Survivors on sacrificial hooks to appease the malevolent force known as the Entity. The game offers a thrilling experience as Survivors must work together to outsmart the Killer, using various movement options such as sprinting, walking, crouch-walking, or crawling, while trying to avoid detection.

Each Killer possesses a unique power, adding diversity to the gameplay. Survivors can also find useful items in chests to aid their escape. The tension is further intensified by the Killer's terror radius, which indicates their proximity and the heartbeat that grows louder as they draw near.

Dead by Daylight Update: 7.1.0 Full Patch Notes

The 7.1.0 update, part of the End Transmission Chapter, is now live for Dead by Daylight. This update brings significant bug fixes, balancing improvements, and enhancements to certain aspects of the game. One of the main highlights is the buffs applied to the Singularity Killer. Players had previously expressed concerns about the lack of dynamism and limitations in the gameplay of this Killer, and the update aims to address those issues.

Additionally, the patch introduces improvements to the AI behavior of bots. The bots now approach the objectives and objectives differently, providing a more challenging experience for players. Furthermore, the update rectifies the "For the People" perk, which had been incorrectly inflicting the Endurance effect initially intended for the "Made for this" perk.

The Survivors' movements include sprinting, walking, crouching, and crawling, allowing them to evade the Killer's line of sight and hide effectively. Throughout the trial, they must be mindful of the Killer's terror radius and heartbeat, which indicate the proximity of danger.

Each Killer possesses a unique power, granting them special abilities to track, capture, and eliminate their prey.
