How to Survive and Win in Dead by Daylight

Dead By Daylight, Escape

After all three generators are turned on, two switches on the outside of the map will light up for both the survivors and for the killer. These switches will open up the door and allow all of the survivors to escape, but the catch is that each switch is completely out in the open and they require time to open just like the generators (without the Skill Checks). The killer will have a 50/50 shot at taking out the survivors if they pick the correct switch to check and if the survivors don’t act quickly enough, they may find themselves overwhelmed.

More often than not, having one of the survivors bait the killer while his teammates work on activating the escape switch is the best course of action in the late game of a match. Use the item’s you have to stun or guide the killer away so one player can safely open the door. Once the door is opened, the survivors are free to book it to the escape point and live to die another day ensuring the killer remains a glaring disappointment to their creepy insectoid sky demon god thing.
