As Back 4 Blood hits its six-month anniversary, developer Turtle Rock Studios is delivering the game's first major expansion. The Tunnels of Terror add-on launches today, April 12th, and there's quite a bit to go at in here.
The big thing is a new feature dubbed 'Ridden Hives'. These new "PvE areas" are sort of like mini-dungeons, delivered as underground levels packed full of zombies... sorry, 'Ridden'. They're not on the same scale as a proper new PvE story act, but they look like substantial add-ons to the game's existing maps.
Also included in the expansion are two new playable characters, seven legendary weapons, 12 weapon skins, new cards and more. The expansion will launch alongside a new higher difficulty mode too, if for some reason you want to make things even more excruciating.
The expansion is a premium DLC pack, coming included in Back 4 Blood's annual pass. That pass will set you back $40/£35, or 10% less with a Game Pass subscription. What's cool though is that just one party member needs the DLC for all players to play, so if you hop on Back 4 Blood with mates, only one of you needs to buy the annual pass. That's a nice touch!
Back 4 Blood Tunnels of Terror launches today, April 12th, on Xbox Series X|S. Here's exactly when you can go hands on around the globe:

The game is pretty decent. Unfortunately playing with randoms (as with many games like this) the experience can be incredibly ruined.
Vast majority of players think they're Rick Rambo Grimes and venture off from the group constantly. So teamwork is nonexistent in many games I've played. Very frustrating.
@GuyinPA75 They’re a double edged sword as playing this single player is pretty damn boring as the characters have no chemistry or personality…like L4D managed, and it just becomes a slog filled with uninspired quips.
The thing that annoyed me about this game the most is that you can only play with people on acts you’ve already completed…I’ve still never seen past act 1. So every time I try and find a game I have to replay some part of act 1 forever. Least this will offer a new look at the game…but I don’t know why you can’t just pick any act to start with (be more annoyed if I owned the game out right)
When a 2008 is better than a 2021 game lol. From the "same developer".
This game gets way way more hate than it should. I think its pretty fun.
