How to download the Back 4 Blood beta
In order to download and get the Back 4 Blood beta, you must have pre-ordered the game for a chance to get early access, or you can wait until the open beta goes live. You can pre-order the game right here on console, here on Steam, or here on Epic Games Store.
After pre-ordering the game, you should receive a confirmation email containing your access to the open beta’s early access period. If you don’t want to pre-order, you can still register to the official Back 4 Blood website in order to be in with a chance of receiving early access regardless. Or, failing that, you can wait for the open beta that begins on August 12, where pre-ordering won’t be necessary.
