It’s basically a new Left 4 Dead
As well as the announcement ofa new co-op FPS from Left 4 Dead writer Chet Faliszek’s new studio, the Summer Game Fest stream today brought news ofBack 4 Blood, the new co-op FPS from the studio who originally created L4D. Back 4 Blood’s open beta will run August 12-16, publishers Warner Bros. confirmed today, with a chance for “early access” if you pre-order or get lucky The recent closed alpha looked decent, from what I saw on streams, so I’m certainly game to batter some zombies.

An FAQexplains that the open beta will have five characters, two cooperative PvE missions, two PvP maps, and “the ability to explore Fort Hope.” Cross-platform play will be enabled too.
I do find it funny that only last month, our Graham was disappointed thatBack 4 Blood’s characters look to lack L4D’s personality. Now one of the people responsible for that personality has a co-op FPS which maybe doesn’t look as solid as B4B but goes harder on personality.The Anacrusis, as that game’s called, does sound an awful lot like L4D but set on a spaceship. Hey, I’m game for both!
