Why isn't Back 4 Blood Left 4 Dead 3? Back 4 Blood Looks Like Left 4 Dead 3 In All But Name All the same, especially with such similar gameplay and a title with the number four slapped right in the middle, many fans are likely wondering why it isn't just part of Valve's classic franchise. In terms of gameplay and design, Back 4 Blood feels like what a Left 4 Dead 3 would've been like.
While some longtime fans may be disappointed there's no Left 4 Dead 3, the recent Back 4 Blood beta has proved just how much Back 4 Blood and Left 4 Dead are similar, despite some PvP differences and the lack of a campaign.

Given the Left 4 Dead franchise's second installment has enjoyed remarkable staying power long after the zombie genre peaked in the early 2010s, it would've made perfect sense for Valve to unveil a modernized take on the four-player co-op horror games. To many, Turtle Rock's Back 4 Blood trailer may have seemed like just that, as it featured four wise-cracking characters, each with a different weapon hordes of zombies and several overpowered mutants, a la the Tank and Charger and Left 4 Dead's signature gameplay, which emphasizes constant progression as much as gut-blasting carnage.
So, why isn't the game just called Left 4 Dead 3?
First revealed during The Game Awards 2020, the trailer for Back 4 Blood came with all the familiar Left 4 Dead ingredients, only to drop the similar-but-different Back 4 Blood title card at the end. For the better part of a decade, gamers have anticipated an announcement for Left 4 Dead 3, but a spiritual successor known as Back 4 Blood will be coming out soon instead.
