Network connection errors are nothing new and often comes around and rears it's ugly head whenever new content gets added to the game. So don't worry, it's most likely not your internet connection or network that is the problem.

Checking any social media for the game via Twitter and Steam is also a good option. The developers will usually tweet or post something if the servers are experiencing problems.

So, if you find that the down detector website or social media shows or says that Dead By Deadlight is currently down, then all you can do is wait for the servers to come back up. 

However, if you don't see anything regarding the servers being down and you are still encountering problems, it may actually be a clientside issue. If you suspect this is the case, you can always try restarting your route as sometimes it can resolve internet issues.

Another fix includes checking your internet connection for any issues via a site like fast.com or restarting either your system or the game. Verifying Steam files and closing the game, and Steam and relaunching have also been reported to work and fixed the no connection error in Dead By Daylight.
