ContentThe JudgmentIncreased the Divine Light curve window while Zealous to 0.8s (was 0.6s)Dev note: In hotfix 1 we increased the Zealous Curve window to 0.6s. However, that duration was shorter based on how long Divine Light was controlled - similar to how it was on the PTB. Because it can get pretty short, we felt it was safe to further increase it to 0.8s. We will continue monitoring this. Added a 0.3s Divine Light curve window when non-ZealousDev note: The curving has been a hugely appreciated mechanic to the Zealous state, giving opportunities to outplay Survivors from close range.

Last week, we announced our plans to kick off our Anti-Cheat Trials initiative, and today it's here!Starting today, we will be trialing Denuvo's Anti-Cheat solution. Note that this does not and will not include anything related to DRM, as Denuvo Anti-Cheat is different from Denuvo Anti-Piracy. Another look at the difference between the two: What we ARE trialing: Denuvo Anti-Cheat A tool that detects cheats in-game, identifying people who try to get unfair advantages before they can disrupt fair play What we ARE NOT trialing: Denuvo Anti-Piracy Tools that prevent the cracking and unauthorized a

ContentKiller UpdatesThe JudgmentIncreased the Divine Light curve window while Zealous to 0.6s (was 0.3s) Dev note: The decoupling of the curve window from the delay phase was good, but the duration of the window was much too short. As a result, we are doubling it to give players a longer window to curve Divine Light while Zealous. We will continue to monitor this value.The KnightDropping a Pallet while being Hunted by a Guard now causes the Guard to path around the PalletIf the resulting Guard Path is greater than 48m the Guard will abandon the HuntDropping a Pallet on a Guard now causes the

Greetings Fog Dwellers! Recently, we shared a survey asking for your thoughts on anti-cheat in Dead by Daylight. One message came through loud and clear: you feel we could be doing more. We hear you and are taking action to bolster and invest in our anti-cheat and security efforts. Put simply, we want you to have the best possible in-game experience, and that means fewer cheaters! While this is just one of many steps in our ongoing commitment to fair play, your involvement and feedback will play a huge part in guiding what comes next.

Last week, we hosted a Reddit AMA and on top of having a blast answering your questions, we noticed some topics really got you talking. One of those was the “chat wheel” system we’re working on to help Survivors coordinate and communicate their intentions in-game. So, what better time than the present to share some more details about it with you (including one way your feedback’s already impacted it)! The system in question is – aptly – called Player Intent. With it, you’ll be able to communicate a range of preset messages to your fellow Survivors at the press of a button, using a radial menu
