Dead by Daylight, the popular horror game, is set to undergo significant changes as Behaviour Interactive rolls out its latest update roadmap. The game, already buzzing with the introduction of the deadly doll Chucky, is poised for a series of adjustments that promise to impact the gameplay experience, particularly for those who relish the role of the killer.
The roadmap released by Behaviour Interactive outlines a comprehensive plan targeting various killers, with The Pig at the forefront of discussions regarding potential nerfs. This change could impact a significant portion of the game’s community, as The Pig has been a long-standing feature of Dead by Daylight’s killer roster.
The roadmap spans from the beginning of the year, focusing on reworks for killers like Sadako and The Onryo. Sadako’s rework is particularly noteworthy, as previous adjustments did not meet the expectations of the developers or the players. The update aims to refine her condemned playstyle, bringing her closer to her original concept.
Adjustments Across the Board
Other killers are also in line for changes. The Hillbilly will see modifications to his Overheat mechanic, a point of contention within the community. The Blight’s Add-ons will receive a much-needed update, aiming to enhance gameplay experience.
From March to April, the roadmap indicates tweaks for The Hag, The Huntress, The Demogorgon, The Clown, and The Doctor, with specific details yet to be revealed. Speculation about further nerfs for The Pig has been rife, despite assurances towards the stream’s end that no such nerf is planned. Many players are hopeful for a buff to The Pig’s crouch movement speed.
