Dead by Daylight update 2.53 patch 6.0.2 is out today for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and Switch. You can get the patch notes here.
There are plenty of bugs fixed in this update. One of the changes is related to the maximum range at which Survivors can see each other during Nightfall which has been increased to 54 meters (was 24 meters). On PS4, the DBD picture on the entrance screen was off center and the Dead by Daylight logo was absent. Fix for Pig’s Ambush Dash attack prompt incorrectly displaying the Calm Spirit perk description rather than its standard explanation. Bug fixes for issues that caused the game to crash when starting an instructional bot match without having fully downloaded the game.
