Dead by Daylight Update 5.5.1 Patch Notes

Dead by Daylight has today launched update 5.5.1 on all platforms, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. To no one’s surprise given its timeliness to a previous large update, this patch merely adds a list of bug fixes instead of adding content. Given that this list of bug fixes is particularly long though, and the few changes that have been made are nice, no one should be batting an eye at this changelog. You just shouldn’t go in expecting the whole nine yards either. Without further adieu, here’s everything new with Dead by Daylight in its 5.5.1 update!
