Dead by Daylight kill-switched The Knight after players found an exploit allowing him to send out multiple Guards after vaulting, and many players are wondering when he'll be back. As the height of the holiday season approaches, some are worried that they won't be able to play The Knight for a long while, perhaps even into 2024.
When Will The Knight Be Back In Dead By Daylight?
So when will The Knight be back in Dead by Daylight? That all depends on how long it takes developers to fix the exploit that caused him to be kill-switched - which, as we mentioned, might be slowed down by the holiday season. Dead by Daylight has kill-switched killers for weeks at a time before while ironing out bugs, so it's certainly not out of the question that The Knight might remain kill-switched for the rest of December.
However, they've also made some pretty prompt fixes before, so it's also possible that The Knight could be back in the roster before the end of December.
Given Behaviour's history of kill-switching, we expect that The Knight will return to Dead by Daylight in early January. However, Behaviour hasn't announced a concrete release date for the return of The Knight, and he will likely remain kill-switched until the exploit is fully resolved.
