Left 4 Dead 2
The safe room is ahead. Will your whole team make it?
Four new Survivors cross the American South, from Savannah to New Orleans. In Valve’s co-op shooter, one teammate getting separated can change the course of a run.
What does a run look like?
Coach, Ellis, Nick and Rochelle try to survive an outbreak. Five original campaigns take their escape through cities, swampland and an abandoned carnival.
- Stay together, share supplies and rescue teammates caught by Special Infected.
- Melee weapons, the Charger, Spitter and Jockey add new threats and split-second decisions.
- AI Director 2.0 changes the pressure from run to run, with Campaign, Versus and Survival offering different ways to play.
