Dead by Daylight has today launched its 5.6.2 update on all platforms, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. Today’s update, as many of you have come to expect, once again is offering a list of bug fixes rather than anything concrete. As such, it’s a patch first and foremost designed with current players in mind, not those who wish to return. Highlighting the bug fixes are a fix for cosmetics that were accidentally made free (sorry Epic Games Store players), achievement issues, and various crash fixes. Without further adieu, here’s everything new with Dead by Daylight in its 5.6.2 update.
