Fans of the Dead By Daylight franchise, often popularly styled as DBD, are finally getting something they have been asking about for a very long time. Behaviour Interactive<\/a>, the creators of the game, have announced that they will be implementing a colorblind mode to the game in an effort to make it easier for those with the disability to play the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This announcement comes on the heels of a wave of backlash after fans noticed on the test server for the new patch, which features a HUD update, that it was harder for those with colorblindness to see. The outcry for colorblindness isn’t new to the DBD community \u2013 in fact, one person went so far as to make weekly posts on Reddit regarding the issue for 70 weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was noted that a developer was overheard saying that requests for a colorblind mode were ‘getting boring’, which sparked a lot of controversies. Players in part can thank Stephen Spohn, the COO of Able Gamers<\/a> who tweeted about the developer’s statement. Two hours later, Behaviour Interactive responded on Twitter that ‘a colorblind mode is coming’ and denounced the feelings of that developer as those of the company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It does not appear that the colorblind mode will be coming in the 4.5.0 patch, due to be released soon, as Behaviour stated they are still working on the mode and want to get it right on its release. The update does include a new reworked HUD, map graphic changes and reworks, as well as changes to the matchmaking system, the animations of the survivors and killers, and an update for one of the killers, The Clown. The Clown will be receiving a new yellow bottle, that when thrown, will allow him to speed up to catch survivors. This can work in the survivors’ favor as well, as they can be cured of all status effects and gain a speed boost if they are close to the yellow cloud and are able to walk through it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The upcoming colorblind mode will feature deuteranope, the inability to perceive green light, protanope, the inability to perceive red light, and tritanopia, the inability to perceive blue light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
