This overhaul was actually created by the L4D2 fan community, through the work of modders who pore through game files and code, using and reusing various bits to create new content.īut because it was so well done, it received Valve's blessing and has been released as an official update. Was developer Valve secretly working on an update to a decade-old game? No such luck. It's also a game I spent countless hours playing on the Xbox 360, but now I own it for the PC, too, since this final update is Windows only. A multiplayer survival horror game released in 2009, its most recent update had been about eight years ago.
Of the many surprises 2020 has brought, getting a major update to Left 4 Dead 2 was not anywhere on my radar.
