"Eviction is an add-on I have been working on over the past 3-4 years. At this release, it contains 5 highly detailed levels that surpass the original limits of the vanilla game. 4 of which are campaign levels with an additional multiplayer level. It contains five new enemies! Over 35+ secrets to be found and dozens of side areas to explore! Randomized keycodes and clues for secrets. Meaning each time you play the code and clue will be unique! Modern effects like patrolling enemies and low gravity!" — Official description

As of the part five iteration, it features ten new enemies and custom scripting requiring either the NBlood port or its fork Raze (completed using XMAPEDIT).
Episode[edit]
Custom Episode: Eviction
"After the destruction of Tchernabog, the remnants of the Cabal make their last-ditch attempt of hunting down and killing the Great Betrayer. Caleb has discovered a deprecated city to hide amongst. The area is filled with crime and vagrants. The perfect place to harbor his immorality. He is free to torture and feed amongst the transients. No one will be missed. Unfortunately his barbarism is short-lived as the Cabal slowly narrows in on his whereabouts. He'll need to gather as much supplies as possible at the local Mall before the Guardian demolishes it. No hidden treasures can go undiscovered. And lookout for traps throughout the city. The Cabal wont let him escape alive this time." — Plot description
Releases[edit]
"At last! The journey continues with the third level to Eviction - my add-on for Blood. In The Hive you will explore the city's underground water treatment facility with a secret passage to an archaeological site. Exploring this insect infested facility is crucial to finding key items that will help you progress. Stuck at a gas leak? Look for the gas mask! Deep within the aquifer lies an Ancient Evil ally to the Cabal. Collect all the Relics to learn its weakness. Destroy it to enter one of the last remaining Cabal Fortresses!" — Reissue plot
The first level, "EVICTION", was originally released standalone on May 12, 2017. A pack of the first two levels, "Eviction" and "Retail Therapy", released on April 19, 2018. An additional level, "The Hive", was added with a reissue on March 12, 2020. A Bloodbath map, called "Facing Worlds" and based on Unreal Tournament, is also included. Part Four was released on July 31, 2021 and featured the level "Abaddon Station".
Development[edit]
"My intentions are creating at least 3 levels. So far I have tried to use everything I've learned with mapedit to create intelligent level design, gameplay, scripted effects, puzzles, and secrets. Everything is placed specifically and purposefully. All weapons and items are risk and reward to make the player feel like they achieved/earned what they collect. The more you explore the more gameplay you get out of this map." — Austin Adams
"I hope to eventually have enough levels for a complete episode but we'll see. It takes a lot of work and many months. With each release I plan to go back and add enhancements to the previous levels. I really do hope you guys enjoy this." — Austin Adams
"This is an add-on I have been working on for Blood. As of now it contains 3 extremely detailed single player levels and 1 multiplayer level that is a recreation of Facing Worlds from Unreal Tournament. I would eventually like to complete an entire episode... Everything is 100% vanilla so it should work in DOS, NBlood, and BloodGDX. Fresh Supply did not code the entire game so some features might be broken but still playable. To run the addon just extract the contents directly into the Blood folder and use EVICT.INI to launch. NBlood is preferable." — Austin Adams
Reception[edit]
"There is no room for improvement. These maps are done. Most detailed environments I've ever seen in Blood. Clearly made with passion. Congrats!" — MariusArmand
"Super cool and super detailed maps for Blood. Despite there are currently 3 levels as I am writing this review, I think it's just enough considering how much effort the creator has put into those maps." — Dzierzan
"Played the whole thing in one sitting and was disappointed when it ended. Very polished with lots of care put into every little corner of the map." — Rob2052
