What is Memento Mori in Dead by Daylight?

Previously, Killers would need to equip a Memento Mori Offering to be able to kill the Survivors without needing to hook them. Per the Developer Update on September 22, 2022, Memento Mori will now be automatic if the Killer downs the final Survivor during Last Standing phase. This means that the final Survivor that is downed will automatically be killed via the Killer's Mori.
