First off, we all wanted to give a huge thank you for your interest in Back 4 Blood and your continued support and understanding regarding us moving the launch date. Your excitement for the game continues to inspire us!
Today we got to share our newest trailer and it’s all about our Card System! Watch it here if you haven’t yet:

If you're done dissecting the epic trailer you just saw, we want to address the frequently asked questions on this topic:
- Will you be selling individual cards?
- No. Cards will not be available for purchase via any in-game storefront or first-party storefront. We will likely include some cards in post-launch paid content drops, but we are doing so in a way that ensures those drops will not be pay-to-win. We will also release new cards post-launch that everyone can earn and enjoy, whether you’ve bought content drops or not.
- The trailer says we can “earn rewards” and shows off some cool skins. How do we get those? Do we have to buy them?
- Those particular skins you saw can be unlocked through progression. We will at some point, post-launch, have a cosmetics-only shop. These items have no gameplay associated with them, so there won't be any pay-to-win scenarios. These items are 100% opt-in and are only for looks.
- What if I don’t want to build a card deck?
- There will be pre-made decks you can use to fit your playstyle but we hope you give the deck building a shot when the game is out. It’s really fun to create your own and try out different cards!
We hope you enjoyed the latest from Back 4 Blood and rest assured, more is coming! We look forward to sharing more news and answering more questions as we get closer to Beta. Stay tuned!
