Apart from a new story campaign, River of Blood will introduce a new Cleaner called Tala who is a former cultist outcast who is accompanied by a friendly Ridden Tallboy companion known as Jeff. As long as Tala remains on your team, you can use the whistle to summon Jeff who fights alongside Tala. River of Blood also brings eight exclusive character skins and 12 exclusive weapon skins. The expansion also includes new weapons, accessories, and cards. Another major highlight is the Trial of the Worm PvE mode which is now available to all Back 4 Blood players for free.
Trial of the Worm is a co-op PvE mode where players determine their own path down a four-map chain while earning Supply Points along the way. You also have the option of adding Corruption Modifiers to the mix or choosing more vigorous paths to increase the difficulty and boost the number of Supply Points awarded. It also comes with an online leaderboard where players who are looking for a challenge or a more customized difficulty can work towards completing the trial and securing a spot on the leaderboard with their high score.
