▍About the Game
From the creators of Left 4 Dead, Back 4 Blood is a co-op FPS where players work together to reclaim the world from deadly parasites infecting human beings, laying waste to human civilization.
The game will have co-op campaigns that Left 4 Dead players will be familiar with as well as multiplayer modes where players can play as cleaners (humans) or the infected. The game features a “rogue-lite” card system that changes the game, creating different experiences for the player depending on the deck they have.
Back 4 Blood is scheduled to release for PC and console on 12th October 2021.
