General Changes
Load-Out

Visual Effects
The Fog is thicker than ever, causing both the Killer and Survivors to have limited visibility.
- The duration of the Bubble Indicator in powered Exit Gates
is reduced to 4 seconds for both Survivors and the Killer.
Sound Effects
Sounds produced by the Killer and Survivors are harder to hear through the thick Fog:
- The sound of Survivor and Killer Footsteps is suppressed.
Stealth
The Terror Radius
and Scratch Marks
are disabled.
Anti-Camping Feature
The range of the Anti-Camp Feature is doubled to 32 metres.
HUD
Lights Out hides most of the HUD elements and the Status HUD, with a few exceptions:
- Survivor Portrait
- Chase-Status
- Hook Stages
- Button prompts
Killer Changes
The Killer's ability to terrorise their prey is improved in the darkness:
Dropping Items
Survivors entering the Dying State automatically drop the Candelabra
, if they were carrying it around.
Survivor Changes
Survivors' determination rises as the Fog descends:
Chest Loot
A total of 11 Chests
spawn in the environment and Survivors may use whichever Item they find inside them.
Their loot table is modified to only feature Items of at least Rare Rarity, as well as the new Limited Item: Candelabra.
| Item Rarity | Spawn Chance |
|---|---|
| Common | 0 % (disabled) |
| Uncommon | 0 % (disabled) |
| Rare | 20 % |
| Very Rare | 10 % |
| Ultra Rare | 10 % |
| Candelabra
|
60 % |
Keys
While Chests are plentiful in Lights Out and spawn Toolboxes, Maps, and Med-Kits, they never spawn any Keys
.
If the Killer closes the Hatch
, it will be closed for good.
Endurance
After Survivors are unhooked, their Endurance
Status Effect lasts for an extended duration of 60 seconds.
Generators
All Generators start with a minimum of 5 % Progression at the start of the Trial, making it easier to find them by ear, as visibility is impaired.
Survivors also have their individual base Repair speed increased by +20 % to 1.2 c/s.
Candelabra
