Welcome again, Fog Dwellers, to another round of stats. This time, we’ve got some stats from different parts of the globe. No matter how far apart you are or what language you speak, we are all connected by one thing: The love of DbD. Let’s take a look!

First up we’ve got our players from Asia and Oceania. They’ll be paving the way for what you will notice is a pattern with a few of our categories. What you will notice IS different will be the Ghoul coming in for top pick of Killer, with Feng Min holding a very long and strong victory over most picked Survivor. Their Shanes have also done the heaviest escape work!

Next up we’ve got Latin America, who leaned ever slightly more towards Déjà Vu than Windows of Opportunity. Their go-to gals were The Huntress and Meg, proving that sometimes you really can’t beat the classics. They also boast the most lethal Slasher!

Third to fall under our gaze is Europe, who bring us back to the Windows of Opportunity trend. Our European players show a preference for The Mastermind when it comes to killing, and lean towards the iconic Sable for surviving.

And last but definitely not least, we’ve got North America, who have spent way more than five nights playing The Animatronic. They also share a love for Sable with their friends across the ocean, which we think is just beautiful.

We want to emphasize that these stats only take into account the first two weeks of The Slasher being available, while players were still figuring out counterplay, and the first 5 days of Shane being available, which is why they appear consistently throughout this post. We will continue to monitor the kill rate of The Slasher as time goes on.

We hope you found these stats interesting, and we look forward to seeing you again for our next round!

Until next time…

Today we wanted to talk to you about some of the perk changes (spoiler alert: 58 perks are changing) and content that you can expect in the next PTB, as well as the reasonings behind them. Back in update 9.6.0, we added Diminishing Returns to the game. You may have noticed that this feature did not ship with exponential balance changes to accompany it; we wanted to ease…Game update8 Sep 202610.1.2 | Bugfix PatchContent The Judgment · Increased the Divine Light curve window while Zealous to 0.8s (was 0.6s) · Dev note: In hotfix 1 we increased the Zealous Curve window to 0.6s. However, that duration was shorter based on how long Divine Light was controlled - similar to how it was on the PTB. Because it can get pretty short, we felt it was safe to further increase it to 0.8s. We will continue monitoring…Community4 Sep 2026Dress to the Divines with the Dead by Daylight: Chorus of Sin Merch CollectionCelebrate Dead by Daylight: Chorus of Sin with a limited-edition merch collection inspired by the divine horror of The Judgment.
