Turtle Rock Delves Into ‘Back 4 Blood’ Development in New Video
Let’s get this out of the way: We already love what we see in Turtle Rock’s Back 4 Blood alpha. We’re chomping at the bit with Barbara Crampton being part of the voice cast. And yet, like you, we want more.
Well, Turtle Rock is happy to oblige with a new behind-the-scenes video delving into the developer’s vision of the game, which right away acknowledges B4B being a successor to the classic Left 4 Dead series.
For starters, the protagonists are not your typical “all walks of life” people that just so happened to be teaming up to make their way to safety as in L4D. Rather, this new group has lived in the infected world for a year, and are either tough enough to not fear the undead or are immune to their virus.
As far as gameplay goes, your characters are armed to the teeth with powerful weapons to compensate for the stronger zombies you’ll be facing. And yes, you’ll be facing off against common and mutated zombies as before. But now, there’s a wider variety of undead in Back 4 Blood.
Lastly, as was the case in L4D is the game’s replayability, which has been cranked up again, thanks to a revamped Game Director. The system will now look at player’s health, ammo and weapons in order to orchestrate a “proper” encounter for players to face.
In other words, we can’t wait. Back 4 Blood is set for release on PC on June 22, 2021.
Dead by Daylight fans have another Tome launch today in Tome 19: SPLENDOR, bringing with it a new content update, the game’s next Modifier, a new Tome packed with unlockable rewards, and a major update to the in-game store. Accompanying the update will be several Outfit Collections, which will be arriving over the next couple of weeks.
After giving fans a taste of what’s to come with the time-limited Lights Out Modifier, Behaviour Interactive has introduced a new one with Chaos Shuffle, offering a completely different challenge. In the Chaos Shuffle Modifier, players will be jumping into Trials with randomly selected Perks from all of Dead by Daylight’s available Perks. However, instead of relying on tactics they’ve grown accustomed to, players will now have to contend and strategize with the Perks they’re dealt at the beginning of the match. Chaos Shuffle will be out soon.
Along with the new Modifier is the new Event Tome with SPLENDOR, packed with new challenges, memories, and classy rewards to Dead by Daylight, inspired by all things gold and silk. Players will unlock memories that offer a glimpse into The Artist and Zarina Kassir’s past, with new outfits for The Trickster, Nea Karlsson, Mikaela Reid, The Skull Merchant, and many more characters across the Free and Premium Tracks. Players who purchase the Rift Pass instantly unlock a gold-adorned Outfit for The Trapper, and those who complete the track are rewarded with a brutal Ultra Rare Outfit for The Doctor.
As for the in-game store, with over 30 Chapters packed with content and outfits for our numerous Survivors and Killers, the in-game store has been given a complete visual overhaul. The new interface allow players to easily find items that are on sale, cosmetics from a specific collection, as well as purchase bundles that contain multiple items at a discounted price.
Finally, there are the new Outfit Collections that are coming to Dead by Daylight in the coming weeks.
- The Forgotten Myth Collection brings a horrifying Visceral Legendary Outfit for The Huntress, complete with its own unique Mori.
- Metamorphosis manifests in different ways. The returning Chrysalis Collection reimagines both Killer and Survivor with butterfly or moth-inspired looks.
- The return of the Visions of the Future Collection offers new futuristic looks for several Survivors.
- A new addition to the Nicolas Cage Essentials Collection proves the actor needs no stylist to look cool.
- The Forgotten Garden Collection spreads botanical brutality to two Killers.
- The Cats & Dogs Collection brings more cozy sweaters to the game inspired by our furry friends.
Dead by Daylight is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
