Undetectable

Undetectable is a Status Effect featured in Dead by Daylight that is applied exclusively to Killers.

It was originally introduced in Patch 3.2.0 alongside the release of CHAPTER 13: Stranger Things, with The Demogorgon having been the first Killer to use it.

Mechanic

The Undetectable Status Effect is a buffing effect applied by numerous Unlockables.

Killers benefitting from Undetectable are granted several stealth abilities and generally shielded from the Aura-reading abilities of Survivors.

Undetectable has the following effects:

• Suppresses the Terror Radius
  • It should be noted that if the Killer has a Lullaby, it will not be suppressed and remain unaffected by the Status Effect.
• Suppresses the Red Stain
• Blocks all Aura-reading abilities from Survivors that would normally reveal the Killer.
• Suppresses the Stinger SFX jump-scare that would usually play when a stationary Killer starts moving again.
  
• Enables the smoky-screen VFX that indicates stealth mode to the Killer Player.
