    edit - Also I'm blind and didn't see the xbox bit. Most likely the servers like MegaWaffle said.

    snip since I am blind and missed important detail

    I had a similar issue before the update and while I'll place this as purely a coincidence I had to install a windows 10 update and then re-install Easy Anti Cheat. Afterwards I restarted my computer and my game worked.

    Are you getting a message while attempting to launch the game?

    no it pops up when i i enter the game like when its loading the main menu

    1: servers are acting up because of the huge influx on players for the new chapter.
    2: DBD team is trying to fix the console servers so they are also acting while this fix is taking place.
    3: DBD server just generally suck at times.

    Oh okay my bad. Only thing I could find regarding that is players would restart steam to fix it. If you've already done that I wouldn't have a clue sorry. Good luck on figuring it out though.

    Perhaps so, I have even uninstalled and re-installed the game to no avail.

    I checked my save data on my Xbox because I was curious why it couldn’t find it and it’s not there wth is going on?
  • deadbydaylightfan deadbydaylightfan
    I hope dead by daylight didn’t wipe my progress

    Pretty sure all saved data is stored on the server side..

    Hey! Thought I would just let you know that I have managed to log back in so I don't know if it will work for you now.
