It looks like a common matchmaking bug, which the developers recently announced a workaround for, in Dead by Daylight for consoles may be getting patched soon, according to a tweet by the developers.
The developers recently released a workaround for the bug, which prevents people from choosing the “Play as Survivor” option in matchmaking, and today the studio announced that it has made improvements to the game’s matchmaking. It also said that it was releasing more fixes to the game throughout the day, which hopefully includes a fix for the aforementioned bug.
PS4 and XBOX One players!
Last night we made improvements to our matchmaking. More fixes will come today.
