Descriptions & Patch Notes

The glow of the flashlight looks a little different, feels a little warmer.

When you are shining a Flashlight, you have 50% Haste.

When you successfully blind the Killer, they also gain 20% Hindered for 6 seconds. This effect cannot stack with itself.

Then, this perk goes on cooldown for 80/70/60 seconds.

Haste increases Survivor movement speed.

Hindered reduces Killer movement speed.
