Trivia
- If a Survivor is in the Dying State
during Adrenaline's activation, they will be healed to the Injured State . - If the Exit Gates are powered while a Survivor is on a Hook or being carried by the Killer, Adrenaline will apply after they are unhooked, dropped by the Killer, or escape the Killer's grasp. However, this does not occur when trapped in a Cage of Atonement .
- If the Exit Gates are powered while a Survivor is being picked up or carried by the Killer before being hooked, Adrenaline will not activate upon that Survivor being unhooked.
- If the Exit Gates
- Adrenaline will not immediately activate if a Survivor is currently falling over as a part of entering the Dying State . Adrenaline will instead activate after the animation.
- While under the effects of the Deep Wound Status Effect, Adrenaline will heal you to the Injured State .
- Adrenaline will not heal a Survivor affected by the Broken Status Effect, but will still receive the sprint burst upon activation, as demonstrated in the video below.
- On the official website, Adrenaline features the following flavour text: "I've never missed a race, I always reach the finish line!"
