Today Warner Bros. Games and Turtle Rock Studios announced details for the next Back 4 Blood DLC expansion. The new DLC is officially named Children of the Worm. The downloadable content for the game is scheduled to be released on August 30th of this year. The release will be a part of the Back 4 Blood Annual Pass, the Back 4 Blood: Deluxe Edition, the Back 4 Blood: Ultimate Edition or just as a standalone purchase.
Children of the Worm is set to feature a brand-new story campaign which will put the players into a showdown with a new “fierce” enemy threat. We don’t know who the enemies are yet but they appear to have weapons and gear to aid them in their fight against the Cleaners. The expansion will also introduce us to “Prophet” Dan who is said to be a gun toting, self-proclaimed preacher of the end times and will join the Cleaners. The expansion will include eight exclusive character skins and 12 exclusive weapon skins as well as new weapons, accessories and cards. The new additions are the Lockjaw weapon and the Bear Trap accessory as seen below in the graphic which we were provided.
For those who are new to the game, Back 4 Blood is a first-person co-op zombie shooter, from the lineage of Left 4 Dead, from Turtle Rock Studios. It is available now for Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, and the PC. The story takes place after a catastrophic outbreak where most of humanity has either been killed or infected by the parasitic Devil Worm. Hardened by unspeakable events and emboldened to fight for the last of humanity, a group of apocalypse veterans called the Cleaners have rallied to take on the infected horrors known as the Ridden and reclaim the world.
