Back 4 Blood is coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one, Microsoft revealed during its E3 2021 presentation. With the game set to cost $59.99 / £59.99 / AU$79.99 for the standard edition, that's a hefty savings for those who subscribe to the Microsoft service. The game is a cooperative first-person shooter from the creators of the Left 4 Dead series, pitting you and three other players against hordes of the undead known as the Ridden. You'll have to rely on a fast shooter, the unique abilities of your characters, and your teammates if you want to survive the onslaught. Back 4 Blood Turtle Rock developer also revealed that the game will support crossplay, which means that no matter what platform you're playing on, you'll be able to team up with your friends. Having the game on Xbox Game Pass is a boon for the new title, as it means it will be available to more than 18 million subscribers on the day it launches. For online multiplayer games, this can make all the difference when it comes to building a healthy player base. We look forward to seeing more of Back 4 Blood's PvP (player versus player) mode during the PvP Showcase, taking place today, June 12 at 2pm PT / 10pm BST / 7am AEST. You can watch it on Twitch.
