Online drop-in / drop-out co-op is available, but pretty difficult since the game does require a modicum of team effort.
There's a solo option and bots will assume three identities. If you don't have three friends to play through the campaign with, that's fine. The goal, more often than not, is to survive. Like the previous titles, a squad of four "cleaners" shoot, pillage, and heal their way through enormous piles of zombies to collectively complete levels and achieve goals. The numeral 4 in Back 4 Blood teases the number of players the game supports. The question is, can the studio escape the shadows of its past, or does the new title fall flat on its face? And of course, we have to answer the question of how well it runs on today's PC hardware.īy the way, to keep spoilers to a minimum, all of our screenshots today are from the first level of Act 1, titled Resurgence. The beta weekend back in August was also quite a hit, showing just how hungry gamers are for some cooperative action. Even the title of the latest entry - Back 4 Blood - gives more than a nod to its predecessors. Interactive from revisiting the zombie apocalypse co-op shooter genre. Valve still owns the L4D franchise, but that wasn't going to stop Turtle Rock and publisher Warner Bros. Now Turtle Rock is back with a third title that's not an actual addition to the Left 4 Dead franchise, but is clearly a spiritual successor nonetheless. Developer Turtle Rock Studios, which was acquired by Valve prior to the release of the first game, re-established itself as an independent studio following the release of the second. For the uninitiated, four players blasted their way through frantic zombie hordes in the L4D games, working together as a team just trying to survive.
The Left 4 Dead games were great cooperative fun.
