The Dead by Daylight Double XP Weekend (July 2022) has arrived and is the perfect opportunity for players to farm Iridescent Shards and purchase teachable perks or cosmetics to bling out players’ favorite characters.
For the uninitiated, Iridescent Shards are a currency rewarded through gaining experience and leveling an account; these take a bit longer to grind than Bloodpoints. However, Bloodpoints have a capped limit of one million points, while Shards don’t.
As a result, the Dead by Daylight Double XP Weekend is the perfect opportunity to put on sweat-soaking wristbands and play for hours on end while earning twice the amount of Shards each match. Here's everything you need to know.
Dead by Daylight July 2022 Double XP Weekend - Start Date
The Dead by Daylight Double XP Weekend officially starts on 15th July 2022 and runs for five days, ending on 19th July 2022. Throughout the limited-time event, players can use the Shards they’ve earned and purchase items or perks in the in-game shop.
In addition, players can bedazzle their favorite characters through purchasable cosmetics or use those Shards to buy perks through Dead by Daylight’s Shrine of Perks.

Subsequently, during the event, the week’s edition of Shrine of Perks features Ace in the Hole, Bloodhound, Monitor and Abuse, and Solidarity. Some of these teachable perks are extremely helpful, like Monitor and Abuse.
It’s worth acquiring perks from the Shrine as they’re permanent and don’t require players to boost Killers or Survivors to the max Bloodweb level to spread their perks across other characters’ kits.
To improve players’ chances of earning Shards, the first game each day rewards extra experience, but afterward, players will have to keep playing during the event. Try keeping Dead by Daylight matches for around ten minutes to reduce any time wasted in grinding during the limited-time event. This rule is essential because the game caps the experience at precisely ten minutes.
