Change Log

  • Nerf: now only triggers on Basic Attacks.
  • Quality of Life: now temporarily causes downed Survivors to be deafened, while applying a tunnel-vision effect.

Patch 6.1.0

  • Buff: now temporarily reduces the Recovery speed of Survivors.

Patch 8.6.0

  • Rework: reworked the Perk to address its main use as a slugging-tool.

Trivia

  • Knock Out applies the deafening sound effect to Survivors afflicted by it.
  • Knock Out used to be trumped by various Perks that allowed Survivors to see their injured peers, but this was changed in Patch 4.1.0.

In the Dark

  • In the Dark was an earlier version of Knock Out, and is still the name of it in the Game files.
    • Instead of the current effect, it would have increasingly reduced the Killer's Terror RadiusIconHelp terrorRadius.pngIconHelp terrorRadius.pngIconHelp terrorRadius.png, depending on the number of Survivors left in the Trial.
