DBD Patch 3.09 Changelog (7.600.001) – March 12, 2024
New Killer – The Unknown
Killer Power
Press the Power button to charge UVX. Once ready, press the Attack button to launch UVX, a bouncing Projectile creating a Blast Area upon impact. Survivors become Hindered if touched by UVX while airborne. Survivors touching the Blast Area become Weakened and lose health states if touched by it. Survivors can remove Weakened status by successfully Staring Down The Unknown.
Special Ability: Hallucinations
The Unknown intermittently creates up to 4 Hallucinations. Hallucinations cannot be created while charging UVX, performing interactions, or near map objects like Hooks. Whenever Survivors are touched by the Blast Area or become Weakened, the spawn time for the next Hallucination decreases by 10 seconds.
Special Ability: Teleport
The Unknown can teleport to Hallucinations, leaving behind temporary Decoys. Survivors can remove Hallucinations from the Trial with the Dispel ability. Weakened Survivors take longer to Dispel. If Dispel is not completed, Survivors become Weakened and trigger Killer Instinct.
Perks
Unbound
Activates for 24/27/30 seconds after a Survivor becomes injured by any means. After vaulting a window, gain 5% Haste for 10 seconds. This effect cannot stack with itself.
Unforeseen
When breaking a Generator, your Terror Radius transfers to it for 22/26/30 seconds and its radius is set to 32/32/32 meters. You gain Undetectable during this time. Then, this Perk goes on cooldown for 30/30/30 seconds.
Undone
When a Survivor misses a healing or repair Skill Check, gain 3 Tokens, up to a maximum of 18/24/30 Tokens. When breaking a Generator, consume all Tokens. For each Token consumed, the Generator loses 1% total progress and becomes blocked for 1 second. Then, once unblocked, it starts regressing. This Perk goes on cooldown for 60 seconds.
New Survivor – Sable Ward
Perks
Invocation: Weaving Spiders
When in the Basement near the circle, press the ability button 1 to begin the Invocation. Invocations take 120 seconds. Other Survivors can join, increasing interaction speed by 50% each. If they have an Invocation Perk, they increase it by 100% instead. Once completed, you become injured and Broken for the rest of the Trial. Reduce the max required Generator progress of remaining Generators by 8/9/10 charges (like “Brand New Part”). Completing the Invocation disables that Perk for all Survivors.
Strength in Shadows
When in the basement, heal without a med-kit at 70/70/70% normal speed. When finishing a heal, see the Killer’s aura for 6/8/10 seconds.
Wicked
Self-unhooks in the basement always succeed. When unhooked, see the Killer’s aura for 16/18/20 seconds.
New Map – Greenville Square
A new section of the Withered Isle opens, Greenville Square, featuring a new main building, The Theater, and unique tiles. Explore its depths and uncover its mysteries, including a Statue with unknown significance.
