Breakable Walls

Breakable Walls are Props featured in Dead by Daylight that were added with Patch 3.6.0.

Overview

Breakable Walls are similar to Pallets in that they are randomly generated throughout the Map and can be broken by the Killer .

Unlike Pallets, however, Survivors cannot interact with them in any way.

They can generally be found in a Map's Landmark structure.

Usage

CHAPTER XV: Chains of Hate introduced the first Map featuring Breakable Walls, Dead Dawg Saloon.

Subsequently released Maps and older ones having received a Rework as part of the The Realm Beyond Update series generally feature them as well.
The sole exceptions to this are the reworked Shelter Woods, Wreckers' Yard, Rotten Fields and Sanctum of Wrath Maps.

• Breakable Walls take 2.6 seconds to destroy and are affected by Perks boosting this interaction speed.
• Prior to Patch 3.7.0, all Killers used an altered Pallet-breaking animation for Breakable Walls.
