Jokes & boycotts aside, Left 4 Dead is still very much alive. Valve are releasing ‘The Sacrifice’ DLC in October (for both Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2) and, in typical Valve fashion, they’re doing it in a spectacular way.
This time, we get a humongous comic graphic novel, granularly released over 4 weeks, documenting the aftermath of the military rescue at the end of Blood Harvest, the origin of the plague & the survivors plight.
Episode 1 features Louis. His first encounter with a zombie is on the loo, which may very well explain his demeanour.
The L4D blog has this too say –
Welcome to the first chapter in our four-part Left 4 Dead comic, the Sacrifice! Find out what happens after the military rescued Francis, Louis, Zoey, and Bill at the end of the original Left 4 Dead in four weekly installments, each a whopping 40-plus pages of story and art. Then, download the new DLC “The Sacrifice”, where we put the story’s conclusion into your hands.
…
“The Sacrifice” DLC will be available for both Left 4 Dead 1 and Left 4 Dead 2 on October 5th for PC, Xbox 360 and Mac.
