The game is set to be released on October
Turtle Rock Studios revealed, in a post on the official Twitter profile of Back 4 Blood, that the game has gone gold ahead of its release in October 12.
The announcement comes while the game’s developers run against time to fix problems faced by its players in the current Open Beta, such as problems in matchmaking and an error that, according to the game’s developers, combined many of the sounds made by the Ridden, the game’s zombie-like enemies, in what sounds like an offensive slur.

You can check out the developers’ response to the problem below, revealed in a statement on its official Twitter profile:
Back 4 Blood is considered by many as the spiritual successor or the Left 4 Dead since it originates from the mind of the series creators. On it, players take on the role of many survivors, as they fight their way together in a world infested by deadly creatures, known only as of the Ridden, in a battle to restore civilization and reclaim the world. The game is also known for having flirted with the outstanding 100K active players mark last weekend, during its previous beta stage.
