The makers of Left 4 Dead is Back 4 Blood, but not as soon as first thought. The new co-op FPS featuring zombie hordes was set for release on June 12, but has unfortunately been delayed.
Developers Turtle Rock Studios cited more time is needed for the game development. The current pandemic definitely had an impact.
Back 4 Blood isn’t the only Warner Bros-published title to get hit by a delay. Warner Bros. Montreal’s Gotham Knights was recently pushed to 2022.
The good news is, there will still be an open beta available this summer (Q3), so you can still test out Back 4 Blood before the game’s full release.
Back 4 Blood will now launch on October 12 for the PS4, PS5, PC (Epic Games Store), Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
