Back 4 Blood Reveals Children of the Worm Expansion

Back 4 Blood’s second expansion is given a release date and will add new weapons and enemies along with the story’s fifth act.

Co-op zombie shooter Back 4 Blood has teased some details about its upcoming Children of the Worm expansion in a new promotional image. A new campaign act, a new Cleaner, new weapons, enemy types, and more have been revealed along with the release date for the next chapter in Back 4 Blood.

Back 4 Blood was released in 2021 and developed by Turtle Rock Studios, a team that has a long history with co-op shooters that have influenced many of today’s multiplayer games. Turtle Rock Studios is best known for having developed the highly successful first Left 4 Dead game along with the asymmetrical multiplayer shooter Evolve which pitted a team of survivors against one player controlling a monster. Back 4 Blood is a spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead, hinted at by the substitution of “for” with “4” in the title. The game features a ragtag team of survivors fighting their way through hordes of zombies or “Ridden” while an AI game director modifies the environment to keep players on their toes.
