PATCH AT A GLANCE
Official source ↗Quick take
Last week, we introduced the Backend Tunables system as a way to get small balance changes in your hands quicker without having to wait for patch releases. We mentioned having changes planned for a number of Killers and today, we're putting this system to use with some adjustment to The Executioner and The Good Guy. 18s)Increased Punishment of the Damned's maximum range to 16m (was 10m)Dev

Main focusGameplay changes and fixes
- Overall, our goal is to make The Executioner feel snappier when using his power, while also giving him more range to help promote those awesome plays. 8s)Dev
- We felt that The Good Guy could use a little bit of a boost to his lethality while in power, so we've made some adjustments to put him in a better place for the long term. As a reminder, this update does not require a download of any new content, however players will need to restart their game for the changes to take effect.
