Back in October when the new co-op zombie shooter Back 4 Blood launched it had a decent start, but, despite not-so-good results, Turtle Rock Studios and Warner Bros. are planning to keep the undead party rolling with plenty of post-launch content.
Now, the studios have revealed their post-launch roadmap for the game which covers what the game will be covering in the next few months. The roadmap includes free updates like the ability to play offline while still progressing the campaign, more cards, and a new difficulty.
The game will also get paid Tunnels of Terror expansion that will offer more zombies, playable characters, and more.
Check out the roadmap below:

Back 4 Blood isn’t Left 4 Dead, and it doesn’t try to be, doing away with the classics’ straightforward campaign in favour of a more modern experience that rewards progression and offers plenty of replayability. The excellent map and mission design, the huge variety of builds made possible by the card system, and satisfying gameplay make the game by Turtle Rock Studios the one to get for those who have a team of friends ready to take on hordes of undead. But those who are looking to play the game solo would do better to look elsewhere, as Back 4 Blood doesn’t offer much for those not too keen on teamwork.
Back 4 Blood is available now on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PS5.
