Left for Dead



Release Date: 18/19th Nov U.S, 21st Nov Everywhere else

Demo Release: Nov 11th (demo already in progress for those that pre-ordered)


Left 4 Dead is a multiplayer co-op survival horror first-person shooter which attempts to blend the narrative and atmosphere of a single player game with the social entertainment and replayability of a multiplayer game.


Left 4 Dead pits four human playable or AI controlled survivors of an apocalyptic pandemic against hordes of zombie-like, aggressive "Infected". The Survivors' goal is to help each other make it through various scenarios to safety.

As well as the hook of 4 player co-op the game also features an AI known as the director which controls pacing, music, dramatics, health, enemy spawn locations and difficulty, dynamically, each time the game is played resulting in a different and unique experience each play through of the four so called "movies". Even the story provides incentive for continual play throughs with the 4 survivors revealing more about themselves and the world around them, each time the game is played.


It will also feature a 4 vs. 4 mode, where you have the option to play as either the human survivors or four unique “boss” zombies, with the two teams competing against each other through each of the maps. This mode is supposedly far more frantic then the co-op campaign.
