During Microsoft’s press conference at this year’s E3 media summit, computer game fans certainly had a few reasons to celebrate, as Microsoft announced a hotly anticipated sequel: Left 4 Dead 2! Even more, they have announced that the game will be released this year on November 17!

Although there are voices saying that it might be a bit too early for a sequel, since gamers are still enjoying the original release, Microsoft obviously has other plans. They also promised new weapons – the chainsaw, baseball bat, axe and even a very dangerous… frying pan, plus new characters. Other details were scarce, but at least we know that Left 4 Dead 2 is coming and we’ll keep our eyes open for more. Stay tuned!
