Back 4 Blood has a planned June 21, 2021 release date on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Turtle Rock also announced a Back 4 Blood closed alpha test for December 17.
Back 4 Blood features the same zombie-slaying co op DNA as its spiritual forebears, as a band of humans called The Cleaners fight to rid the world of the Devil Worm. Worm zombies of all shapes and sizes crowd post-apocalyptic streets, hungering for blood and spewing all manner of nasty fluids to entrap their human prey.
It’s a staple setup fans expect, which is exactly what Turtle Rock wants out of Back 4 Blood.
Chris Ashton, Turtle Rock’s Design Director, said:
The team also showed off world-premier Back 4 Blood gameplay during the awards show.
We are making this game with our community in mind and are firing on all cylinders to give players a compelling zombie experience that is unlike any other.
Registration for the closed Back 4 Blood alpha test, which is from December 17 to December 21, is open on the official website.
Turtle Rock is also hosting an in-depth Back 4 Blood gameplay demonstration on December 17 at 1 p.m. EST/10 a.m. PST, viewable on their Twitch and YouTube channels. Stay tuned for more.
