It won’t be too long before Back 4 Blood launches on October 12. Turtle Rock Studios aims to keep the hype going with the new launch trailer celebrating the upcoming release of the spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead.
As you might expect, the new video follows the crew of Cleaners (led by “Mom”, voiced by Barbara Crampton) as they fight back against the infected, unrelenting horde known as the Ridden. In addition to the frenetic energy of the co-op campaign, the trailer also shows off the head-to-head, competitive PvP Swarm mode, which allows teams to swap between playing as the Cleaners or the Ridden.
If you spring for either the Back 4 Blood Deluxe Edition (digital only) and Back 4 Blood Ultimate Edition will be granted four days Early Access to the game, in addition to the Fort Hope Elite Weapon Skin Pack. Back 4 Blood will be out for PC via Steam, Xbox One, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
