Behaviour Interactive has rolled out a new patch for Dead by Daylight, labeled as update 7.4.1. This update addresses several bugs and issues stemming from the recent Chucky patch, enhancing the gameplay experience for fans. Let’s delve into the details of what this patch brings to the table.
The update brings a change in the user experience, particularly for killers. Now, input icons on the killer’s power will remain visible but turn semi-transparent when that specific input can’t be used. This minor yet significant tweak aids in better power management during the heat of the chase.
You can find the patch notes below.
