The new Dead by Daylight PTB update is here!

Attention all horror fans: Dead by Daylight has received a new PTB (Public Test Build) update! In this article, you will learn everything about the new killer, the new survivor, and the fresh map. Additionally, we will take a look at the adjustments made to some already known killers and perks. But before we get started, an important note:

The progress and save data were copied from the live games to the PTB servers on May 17th. During the PTB, players can make progress, but it will not be transferred to the live version of the game.

New Killer, Survivor, and Map

The highlight of the update is undoubtedly the new Killer: The Singularity. Along with him, Gabriel Soma enters the stage of horror as a new Survivor. But that's not all - the new map Dvarka Deepwood - Toba Landing promises new challenges and opportunities for Killers and Survivors alike.

The Singularity

The new Killer is already a topic among Dead by Daylight fans. What exactly his abilities are is still unknown, but one thing is for sure - he will provide plenty of thrills. We are excited to see how The Singularity will influence the gameplay!

Gabriel Soma

The new Survivor Gabriel Soma also remains a mystery for now. What special abilities will he have and how will he be able to defend himself against the Killers? We will find out once the update goes live.

Dvarka Deepwood - Toba Landing

The brand new map Dvarka Deepwood - Toba Landing offers an unexplored environment full of surprises and dangers for both Survivors and Killers. Players should be on their guard and prepare for unknown terrain.

Killer Adjustments and Perk Updates

In addition to the new content, some existing Killers have been reworked in this update. The Artist, The Nemesis, The Trickster, The Ghost Face, and The Executioner are affected.

At the same time, some Perks have been adjusted: Pop Goes the Weasel, Déjà Vu, and Flashbang receive changes to make the game even more exciting and balanced.

New Features and Bug Fixes

The Dead by Daylight team has also added a handy search bar to the Loadout and Customization screens. This makes selecting Perks and customizations for characters even easier and more organized.

Finally, many bugs affecting sound, bots, characters, environment, Perks, and user interface have been fixed. The entire gameplay experience should now be even smoother and more enjoyable.

Conclusion

The new Dead by Daylight PTB update brings fresh air to the game with a new Killer, Survivor, and map. Existing Killers and Perks receive adjustments for better balancing. New features like the search bar also improve the gameplay experience. Now it's just a matter of diving into the dark world of Dead by Daylight!
