Back 4 Blood is an upcoming multiplayer horror first-person shooter game by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment scheduled to release on 12th October 2021. The game is currently in the open beta testing stage that players can pre-purchase on Steam for $59.99. The goal in Back 4 Blood is to fight Riddenas Cleaners to reclaim the infected world.

Best Weapons in Back 4 Blood

Back 4 Blood offers plenty of different weapons, including assault rifles, snipers, SMGs and more and here is the list of the best weapons available in Back 4 Blood.

Barrett M95

Barrett M95 is a sniper rifle and has the highest damage rate among all the weapons in the game. The gun can eliminate the opponent in a single shot. If you get your hands on one, you can tackle every long-range fight in the game; however, make sure you have a good aim.

AK47

AK47 is an assault rifle with a high damage rate, decent recoil, which makes it a better and more accurate gun than other assault rifles. AK47 is good for beginners and is highly effective in killing the Ridden in close range.

Scar 

Scar is similar to AK47, but it has a higher damage rate, which is a plus point; however, it has a higher recoil, making it a little less friendly. If you are able to tackle the recoil of Scar, then this gun is definitely a beast.

UMP45

If you want good accuracy and a high damage rate, then UMP45 is the one for you. It is an SMG and has the best stats among all the submachine guns. The only con it has is its low fire rate.

UZI

While UZI might not deliver damage like other guns in this list, its high firing rate can be a lot helpful sometimes. While it might not be your first choice, you can pick it as your secondary weapon.
