ReShade for Dead by Daylight
ReShade is a post-processing tool that applies visual filters to the game in real time, without modifying it internally. It's used to improve the colours, lighting and visibility of Dead by Daylight… even without a powerful graphics card.
100% legal and non-bannable — it only changes what you seeMake your game look better
Here are some of the effects you can enable (and fine-tune to taste) with ReShade.
Colour and contrast
Fake HDR and colour correction: deeper blacks, richer tones and a much punchier image.
Lighting and bloom
Softer, more realistic lights, with a natural glow that gives every map depth.
Depth of field
Background blur to give your clips and screenshots a cinematic feel.
Better visibility
Tune clarity and shadows to read loops, items and the killer better in dark areas.
Fake ray tracing
Simulated reflections and shading that mimic ray tracing without the real performance cost.
Your own style
Anime-style cel shading, film grain, vignette, smoothed edges… the look is up to you.

His ReShade presets
Start with a general preset or scroll down for your map's one. Click any of them to preview its contents, or copy it and add it as a preset in ReShade inside the game.
Each map can have several versions — Standard, v1, Stream, KL or K0DA. Try them and keep whichever you like best.
No map matches that name.
