Left 4 Dead’s long-awaited spiritual successor Back 4 Blood has now entered open beta, and is playable on Xbox consoles.
Back 4 Blood has been in development for quite some time, and is being designed by a number of key developers from Valve during back in the Left 4 Dead days.

The Back 4 Blood beta will feature a number of PvE campaign maps, as well as a few intriguing PvP Swarm Mode maps to battle it out against other players.
Additionally, cross-gen and cross-play support is available, so if your friends don’t have a Xbox Series X or Series S, they can still join in the fun via their Xbox One.

The launch of the beta has come with much acclaim and hype, and as such the game has been facing some unfortunate matchmaking issues. Hopefully things are ironed out over the weekend to allow for some smooth gameplay.
Back 4 Blood is a thrilling cooperative first-person shooter from the creators of the critically acclaimed Left 4 Dead franchise.

You can play the Open Beta and experience intense four-player co-op, competitive multiplayer as human or Ridden, and frenetic gameplay that keeps you in the action. Play with up to three of your friends online or go solo and lead your team in battle.
