Dead by Daylight 7.0.1 update of the End Transmission Chapter is currently live. It contains a range of bug fixes for different aspects of the game, along with some balancing improvements. The major highlight of this update is the buffs provided to Singularity. Players had earlier complained that they could not get their hands on Survivors when playing this killer due to a lack of dynamism and limitations in his gameplay.
Additionally, this patch includes improvements to the bots’ AI, which started approaching the killed as soon as the session began. There is also a fix for “For the People”perk, which used to incorrectly inflict the Endurance effect, initially intended for “Made for this.”
This article will provide an overview of the 7.0.1 update in Dead by Daylight. Detailed patch notes can be found on Behaviour Interactive’s official website.
