Available for over a year now, Back 4 Blood welcomes its third expansion, along with a massive update bringing a ton of fixes to improve the player experience.
New act and cleaner
Available since December 6, River of Blood adds the sixth act of the campaign. The latter takes the cleaners past Fort Hope, from which to let them see some scenery for the first time since the outbreak began.
To undermine a sect, a new recruit is added to the ranks of the cleaners. When a player embodies Tala, transformed chests appear in the level. It also allows you to summon a modified giant who fights alongside you when summoned with a whistle.
Finally, she sets herself apart from other cleaners by inflicting bleed damage that will affect threats over time.
