Dead by Daylight 10.0.1 lines up Shane Wiigwaas and Black Banquet for June 25

Dead by Daylight patch 10.0.1 notes arrived on June 23, and they point to a June 25 arrival for Shane Wiigwaas and the game’s 10th Anniversary Black Banquet event.

The rest of the changelog is mostly cleanup. Audio, characters, maps, perks, UI, and general stability all get attention, and Lend a Hand gets another tweak in the changes-from-release section.

Patch Notes

The biggest changes here are the new Survivor, the anniversary event, and a broad bug-fix pass that touches a lot of the game. Lend a Hand also changes again after release so it can fire more than once per match when its condition is met again.
