We have a brand new update for Dead By Daylight today on February 2nd, 2022. It’s the 5.5.1 DBD update, which has been released for PC and console today. Unfortunately, there is no new content in the patch.
This update focuses on a handful of bug fixes including a beta features, some new content being re-enabled, and several bugs being addressed. The wiggle process will no longer regress when you’re not wiggling, which is the case with both new and old interactions.
