The store found Back 4 Blood for only 68 cents
One Australian store was so desperate to get rid of the remaining copies of the Back 4 Blood game, which has focused them up to only 1 Australian dollar (which is about 68 American cents or 53 rubles), which indicates the unpopular continuation of Left 4 Dead.
Despite the initially strong release, Back 4 Blood could not meet the high standards established by the heritage of its predecessor. One of the most significant consequences of the game was the revival of interest in Left 4 Dead 2. The fall in the popularity of the game may be the reason that the Australian department store Big W put up for sale Back 4 Blood for PlayStation 4 for only 1 dollar. Initially, the game was sold at the price of 89.95 Australian dollars or about 60.72 US dollars. This is a discount of about 98.9% after less than two years from the date of Back 4 Blood.
Reddit Nottodhoward user photographed the shelf and shared it on R/Gaming under the heading "From the creators of Left 4 Dead Evolve". Turtle Rock Studios, previously known as Valve South, was responsible for both games, and was also one of the developers of Counter-Strike: Zero Condition and Counter-Strike: Source. However, the peak of the success of the studio probably came to the 2008 Left 4 Dead game. After that, the most significant release of the studio was the asymmetric multiplayer game about hunting for Evolve monsters. However, despite the fact that some liked Evolve, in the end she did not live up to expectations. After that, Turtle Rock mainly switched to the development of games for VR until in 2019 it announced Back 4 Blood.
At the start of Back 4 Blood, it was mainly a positive. However, many players believe that the game has become a bad substitution of LEFT 4 DeAD 3, which fans never received. Turtle Rock is partly to blame for high expectations, since the status of the game as a spiritual heir Left 4 Dead was one of the main points of sale Back 4 Blood. Judging by the comments under the article NOTDDHOWARD, many LEFT 4 DEAD fans believe that Back 4 Blood was not necessarily a bad game, it just did not correspond to what the Turtle Rock promised.
Nevertheless, more than ten years have passed since the release of Left 4 Dead 2, and Valve seems to be in no hurry to return the series. For its part, Turtle Rock has also moved away from Back 4 Blood and is reported, working on a new project. We hope that the next studio game will be more successful.
