Dead by Daylight News

Stats | April 2024


What is that? It’s The Unknown(‘s data). In its debut month, The Unknown climbed to a 64% kill rate and a 10% usage rate.

An average of 5.76 hallucinations were dispelled per match. If you’re having a hard time facing The Unknown, be sure to dispel those hallucinations! Dispelling hallucinations prevents The Unknown from teleporting to them.


As with any new Killer, The Unknown shot to the top of the most popular Killers list. The Hillbilly, meanwhile, has now settled at a respectable 4% usage following his recent update.


After the introduction of the generator regression limit, we kept a close eye on the system to see how it affected both 3 gen (defending 3 generators for extended periods) and regular matches.

With this system in place, the amount of 3 gen matches fell from 10% of all matches to 4.5%. (Criteria: At least 400 seconds between fourth generator being powered and the end of the match.)

As for regular matches, it appears this mechanic rarely comes into play. Only around 1.4% of matches see at least one generator blocked, with an average of 3.5 kicks per match.


Who’s the best zombie killing machine – Survivors, or The Nemesis? The answer is not even close: The Nemesis has punched and whipped near ten times more zombies than Survivors.

Those zombies aren’t going down without a fight, they’ve attacked Survivors over 48 million times, an average of 1.74 per match.

We have a challenge for you: Let’s see how many zombies you can slay! No pressure, but the impending zombie apocalypse depends on it.

Until next time…

Dead by Daylight's new multiplayer horror game Project T is brave enough to ask: What if the survivors had a lot of guns, and also a truck




Midwinter Entertainment's upcoming game, codenamed Project T, is a new take on the Dead by Daylight universe. It swaps out helpless survivors trying to fix generators for gritty trespassers fighting hordes of monsters off with guns, trucks, and just about anything you can get your hands on—it looks more like Left 4 Dead than anything we've seen in Dead by Daylight before...

As we’re still in the early phases of development and prototyping, all content shared is work in progress. With Project T, we’re looking to include you, the player, from the jump. Not to finetune a nearly complete game, but rather to create it alongside you at a stage when your feedback can matter most. If you want to be part of the journey, join our Insider Program: https://projectt.dbd.game/3WIjMUS


We’re determined to build the kind of game you want to play, and we’re inviting you to join us in helping make Project T the best it can be. That means first-look dev updates, in-game rewards, playtest opportunities, and a place to have your voice heard through honest feedback and ideas about the project.
