Perks:

Dramaturgy: Activates while you are healthy. While running, press the active ability button 2 to run with knees high for 0.5 seconds and then gain 25% Haste for 2 seconds, followed by an unknown effect.

The same effect cannot happen twice in a row. Causes exhaustion for 60/50/40 seconds. Can’t be used while exhausted.

Scene Partner: activates when you are in the Killer’s Terror Radius. Whenever you look at the Killer, scream, then see the Killer’s aura for 3/4/5 seconds. There is a chance you will scream again, if you do, you will see the Killer’s aura for an additional 2 seconds. Scene Partner then goes on cool-down for 60 seconds.

Plot Twist: activates when you are injured. Press the ability button 2 while crouched and motionless to silently enter the dying state. When using Plot Twist to enter the dying state, you leave no blood pools and you make no noise and you can fully recover from the dying state. When you recover by yourself using Plot Twist, you are fully healed instantly and you gain 50% Haste for 2/3/4 seconds. This perk deactivates if you recover by yourself by any means. The perk re-activates when the exit gates are powered.

Projection:

Cursed Tapes:

Demanifestation:

Add-ons:

Grabs from unhooking Survivors have been removed. This means that the awkward mindgame when unhooking has been eliminated, helping to improve the gameplay flow. You still aren’t safe whilst unhooking however, as the Killer will still be able to hit you twice before you can escape.

Although I’m a Killer main, I’m glad to see that the Hook Grabs are finally going away, but I am sad to see that BNP is getting quite the nerf. It’ll be interesting to see how this all plays out in the end, especially now that every lobby is going to be full of Nicolas Cages spouting off unique voice lines. I’m just glad that Killers can’t hear him talk; otherwise, he would have easily earned a top spot in our loudest survivors list.
