Dead by Daylight Patch Notes | Rift Pass 6 - Sunflesh
Dead by Daylight 10.1.1 tunes The Judgment's Divine Light and fixes a Skull Merchant bug, after 10.1.0 added Killer The Judgment and Survivor Aurora.
When is the next update?
Dead by Daylight rolls to its next season around October 6, 2026.
10.1.1 — September 1, 20262 changes
The Dead by Daylight 10.1.1 patch notes are a stability pass following Chorus of Sin, refining The Judgment’s Divine Light power and fixing a Skull Merchant drone-deployment bug. Track the live Dead by Daylight season countdown through the rest of Rift Pass 6: Sunflesh.
TL;DR — 2 changes: tuning and fixes only, no new content. The Judgment’s Divine Light gets a wider curve window; a Skull Merchant drone-deployment bug near hooked Survivors is fixed. Meta impact: none — this is a stability patch, not a balance pass.
Mechanics
- The Judgment — Divine Light’s curve window increased, making the power easier to land buff
Bug Fixes
- Skull Merchant — fixed being unable to deploy a Drone while standing on a floor directly above or below a hooked Survivor active
10.1.0 — August 25, 20262 changes
The Dead by Daylight 10.1.0 patch notes open the Chorus of Sin chapter, adding a new Killer, The Judgment, and a new Survivor, Aurora, to the roster. Track the live Dead by Daylight season countdown through the rest of Rift Pass 6: Sunflesh.
TL;DR — 2 changes: 1 new Killer, 1 new Survivor — The Judgment and Aurora join the Chorus of Sin chapter. Meta impact: too new for meta rankings; no existing-roster balance changes confirmed for this patch.
Mechanics
- The Judgment — new Killer joins the roster; power “Will of the Gods” summons a moving pillar of Divine Light against marked Survivors active
- Aurora — new Survivor joins the roster active
Rift Pass 6 Launch — July 21, 20262 changes
The Dead by Daylight Rift Pass 6 Launch patch notes open Rift Pass 6: Sunflesh, headlined by the new Sacrifice the Sunflesh Collection and the Summer Screams seasonal event. Track the live Dead by Daylight season countdown to the end of the Sunflesh Rift.
TL;DR — Season launch: the Sacrifice the Sunflesh Collection plus two Community Collection additions, new outfits for The Wraith, The Plague, Taurie Cain and Kate Denson, and the Summer Screams seasonal event (July 28 – August 18).
