If you are a resident of the evil multiplayer horror game Dead By Daylight, the latest patch notes are here to slaughter the bugs limiting the video game’s potential. Behaviour Interactive launched the online survival horror game in 2016, with the title becoming a commercial success despite mixed reviews. Over the past few years, the game has seen collaborations with iconic horror franchises such as A Nightmare on Elm Street, Chucky, Five Nights at Freddy’s, Stranger Things, and Silent Hill. One of the games’ frequent visitors is the Resident Evil series, which has brought characters such as Nemesis, Leon Kennedy, Ada Wong, and Albert Wesker. The newest update for the Resident Evil event fixes various 2v8 gameplay elements and visual bugs, including corrections within the Raccoon City Police Station.
