Back 4 Blood Microtransactions Would Be Cosmetic-Only | Game Rant

Envisioned as a spiritual successor to the immensely popular Left 4 Dead series, Back 4 Blood looks to be a high-octane online zombie massacring extravaganza slated to release later this year. The developer behind the title, Turtle Rock Studios, has made it clear that the game won’t just be a one-and-done for the team, hopefully sporting plenty of post-launch content for fans to look forward to.

Talking to Edge Magazine, Co-Founder of the studio and Design Director of Back 4 Blood Chris Ashton clarified what Turtle Rock is currently considering when it comes to developing extra content for the game following its debut. Specifically, he told the publication that while microtransactions could well be on the cards, they’ll likely stick to making in-game purchases purely for cosmetic items.

“We know we want to have ongoing content after launch, but we’re still figuring out what that would be,” Ashton told the magazine. “If we do implement microtransactions, it would be for cosmetics only.” It’s a positive sign for those excited about Turtle Rock’s upcoming zombie adventure, with microtransactions weighing down several multiplayer titles in the past. The company’s previous online-focused IP, Evolvewas controversial due to these issues, with fans criticizing the steep prices of the game’s array of additional content.

It’s interesting to see that Back 4 Blood will be taking a slightly different approach, and hopefully, Turtle Rock will share a firmer view of its plans for post-launch support soon. In the meantime, the new four-player zombie co-op experience is shaping up to be a tantalizing modernization of Left 4 Dead’s popular gameplay formula. Much like its predecessor, the title will see a group of four players team up to take on endless hordes of the undead, having to work as a group to survive. Along the way, they’ll wield an array of weapons, tackle special infected, and take on colossal zombies that will require collaboration to defeat.

The game will hit PC and consoles on June 22. It will be the first non-VR project from Turtle Rock Studios since 2016’s Evolve, with the team spending the last few years collaborating with Oculus to bring games like Journey of the Gods, The Well, and Face Your Fears to life. That’s not to say the studio didn’t attempt to launch an IP on the scale of Back 4 Blood in that time, revealing last year that it had also worked on a canceled project called Invaders. The game saw players fighting aliens in the United Kingdom, assembling into four-person teams in a style similar to the Left 4 Dead and Back 4 Blood. Sadly, it was canceled, with only the idea’s concept art remaining.

Back 4 Blood is set to release June 22 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
