Back 4 Blood Character Perks

Everyone likes to think that, come the zombie apocalypse, they’ll bloom into some kind of crusader for humanity. If I’ve learned anything from watching zombie movies, it’s that most of us aren’t really equipped to handle that kind of environment. To really make your way when the world’s teetering on total collapse, you need some kind of skill that makes you an invaluable asset. If you’re looking for ideas, take a page from Back 4 Blood’s Cleaners. Here are the Back 4 Blood character perks.

Every Cleaner in Back 4 Blood has a handful of unique perks, some that only apply to them, and others that apply to the entire team. When assembling your team, you should consider the Cleaners you’re choosing in order to maximize your overall efficiency.
