First Deadlock update of 2025 is surprisingly small

Mar 18,2025 Author: Lily

Valve's back from their New Year break, and the first Deadlock patch of 2025 is here. While we anticipated a substantial update following the shift away from bi-weekly releases, this initial patch is surprisingly small, focusing solely on adjustments to Yamato.

Yamato's received a slight nerf, impacting damage scaling and reducing the attack speed bonus from Shadow Transformation's first level. Further tweaks include nerfs to Frenzy, Berserker, and Restorative Shot, alongside a minor rework of Alchemical Fire.

A larger patch is likely on the horizon, though predicting its arrival is currently impossible. It's worth noting that Deadlock has experienced a player base decrease recently, possibly due to the popularity of Marvel Rivals. However, a consistent online player count of 7,000–19,000 remains respectable for a game still in deep beta. Remember, Valve has yet to reveal release dates or monetization plans.
