However, Behaviour hasn&#8217;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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12834,"featured_media":59020,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-59019","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dead-by-daylight","genre-horror","content_type-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>When Will The Knight Be Back In Dead By Daylight?
