Valve Reveals L4D2 “The Passing” Details



While fans of zombie murder wait impatiently for Left 4 Dead 2’s upcoming DLC, The Passing, we have a few new features to reveal. Valve recently updated the Left 4 Dead 2 blog with a small list of the important elements being crammed into the new campaign.

You can expect:

  • Witch Bride
  • M60 machine gun
  • Golf club melee weapon
  • “The Fallen Survivor” uncommon common infected
  • Three out of four L4D 1 survivors (someone is kicking the bucket)
  • Brand new game modes.

We’re not one hundred percent sure what the new game modes and Witch Bride are all about, but we’re sure they’re awesome. Be sure to check out my hands-on impressions of The Passing’s sewer level. We'll update you on the official price and release date for The Passing as soon as my delicious brain is garnished with the information.

If you can’t already tell, I'm kind of a big fan of Valve’s undead FPS.

  • really sad one of the old crew is going to die, but i'm really excited for the new content!

  • This sounds like an amazing dlc and i cannot wait to see what character they axe!

  • Looking forward to it.

  • Come to Mac. That is all

  • Did you mean "not one hundred percent sure"? It just sounds like the sentence would make more sense that way...I don't know

  • If I had to guess about the identity of the survivor who won't make it I'd guess Luis. I don't think they'd axe Zoey the only female in the original crew and Bill and Francis had a dynamic with each other. Luis just yelled alot and was not an interesting character at all.

  • Can't wait for all this new stuff, but don't wanna see an original L4D character to die. Release date, soon hopefully.....

  • I still maintain that it would not be Louis. That's the easy way out. It'll be someone the player actually cared about. Most likely Francis because he was one of the most liked.

  • So excited. L4D=mega uber awesomeness. Then again I wish they would tweak the melee weapons a bit...but thats neither here nor there.

    @falconIZE-I thought the same thing. If yall know the new modes then by all means spill the beans!

  • This is smelling like a $15 DLC. Which I am happy to pay. It being Valve, maybe it will be $10.

  • Me too!! I can't wait for this!! Killing zombies is like Xanax for me....relieves anxiety...And you get to kill zombies too. so...its....awesome!

  • way to go valve! one of the only companies that give out DLCs that r actually worth the price. btw plz kill zoey

  • Is this for only PC?

  • 10 bucks bill dies

  • Im thinking Bill shall die. It seems right, even though hes my favorite.

  • I think the old guy is gonna hit the dirt nap. Who do you think will bite the dust?

  • I wish Valve would develop for the PS3 , I had fun with L4D 1 on my 360 , but I've moved on to the PS3 .

  • With all the people talking about the price, it makes me really glad that with the pc version I'll be getting this for free.

  • I am so happy that this is coming to the original Left 4 Dead... SO happy.

    It's not that I don't like L4D 2, but my evil Pomeranian literally chewed it up.

    Gamers, never own a Pomeranian. Ever.

  • Fallen Survivor Special Infected? I can finally kill some one with__________(insert name of dead survivor here) and not get yelled at for TKing?
