More DLC Coming for Left 4 Dead, ‘Crossplay’ in the Works

Crash Course Left 4 Dead

After their well publicised trip to Valve HQ, the leaders of the now-famous Left 4 Dead 2 boycott group have shared some impressions of their trip. Impressions and insider news; apparently more DLC is on the way.

There is more DLC for Left 4 Dead coming after CrashCourse. We were given a rough idea of what it should be, however we were asked not to talk too much about it so it didn’t “influence the creative process”. I can tell you this: it’ll either be a new Special Infected, a new Campaign or new Weapon(s). It’s definitely one of the three, perhaps more.

Nothing official but it’s pretty solid info. Further news regarding the rumoured ‘crossplay’ functionality enabling both L4D and L4D2 players to play online was also mentioned.

I can tell you guys this though; Chet and the rest of the L4D team are still excited about the original four survivors and working the stories of L4D and L4D2 together. To that end, Gabe told us that they’re working on a project that will bridge the stories of L4D and L4D2 and that it will be available through steam (I believe the word ‘free’ was tossed in there too, just don’t quote me on it)

As it will be available through Steam, it’s likely to be a PC-only aspect, although if console gamers could get a 40,000-strong boycott group together for the pricing of Microsoft DLC, maybe it would come to Xbox Live. Here’s to hoping.
