Exciting news for fans of Dead By Daylight: the highly anticipated Update 9.0.0 is finally here after a month of testing on the PBT server! This update marks the thrilling entry of The Animatronic, also known as Springtrap, straight out of the FNAF universe. With new gameplay elements and unique abilities, players are in for a treat.
Whether you’re an experienced killer or a strategic survivor, this update promises features that will pique your interest. Grab the details you need to fully embrace this patch.
Key Features of Dead By Daylight Update 9.0.0
Let’s dive into the new elements that Springtrap brings along. His unique Killer Power, Fazbear’s Fright, allows him to engage Survivors in a way that’s unlike any other killer. He wields a Fire Axe that, when thrown, leaves a Survivor vulnerable, requiring them to remove it before they can heal.
The update also introduces a fantastic new Map Feature called the Security System. This system includes seven randomly spawned Security Doors, accessible to both The Animatronic and Survivors. When Survivors activate a door’s associated camera, the killer’s aura becomes visible, creating an opportunity for teamwork and strategy. If Springtrap finds a Survivor near a door, he automatically grabs them, adding an element of surprise to gameplay.
Plus, with Springtrap, players will have new Killer Perks to master, enhancing strategies and gameplay tactics.
Quality of Life Features in Update 9.0.0
Alongside new gameplay elements, this patch introduces several quality-of-life changes designed to improve overall player experience:
- Survivors will be marked as AFK if they haven’t interacted in the last 10 seconds.
- AFK survivors will accumulate AFK Points, with crows circling them to signify their status.
- Disconnection penalties will now be influenced by the last 20 matches played.
- A system is implemented to identify and penalize Survivors who deliberately die early in matches.
- Killers can now activate the Mori system with greater freedom.
