Dead by Daylight Update 7.1.1 Bugfix Patch Notes

While the 7.1.0 Patch brought one of the best new Survivors to the Fog in recent memory, there were a few issues that persisted or were added with the most recent patch in Dead by Daylight. The team at Behaviour is quick on their feet, however, and has deployed the first Bug Fix Update to hopefully squelch some of the more obnoxious bugs. Let’s see what is waiting for us when this patch goes live.
