The first Left 4 Dead 2 downloadable content pack will be released this spring and it will certainly give some reasons for joy to the fans of the series – no matter if they prefer the first or the new Left 4 Dead game! Titled The Passing, the DLC takes place in a small town in Georgia and all the juicy details about it can be found below!

The biggest surprise The Passing will deliver will be the meeting between the actual survivors and the ones in the original title – but Valve decided against offering too many details regarding their meeting. They did say, however, that the upcoming L4D2 DLC pack will introduce a new co-op campaign, new
arenas for Survival, Versus and Scavenge mode and introduce a new co-operative challenge mode of play. The Passing will also include a new “uncommon common” zombie class, melee weapon, and firearm. Again, specific details were not offered, but I am sure they’re coming.

“The Passing will become the most important campaign in the Left 4 Dead story, as all the Survivors are being called together in one campaign,” said Doug Lombardi, VP of marketing at Valve. “It will also be a huge offering of new gameplay content, with something new for every game mode plus a new uncommon common and weaponry.”

All in all, it sounds really great, so I think it’s fair to say that Left 4 Dead 2: The Passing will be a really great and anticipated content pack.
