Left 4 Dead DLC Hits Xbox 360 Early Tuesday Morn, Should Release on PC 'Later in the Day'

April 20, 2009 5:08 PM

Release dates? They're okay. But release hours? Much better. Thankfully, Valve has decided to indulge us, providing more details as to when Left 4 Dead will be updated.

The free Survival Pack DLC arrives on Xbox 360 tomorrow "at roughly 2am PST," bringing the fast-paced Survival mode to zombie-killers alongside the long-awaited addition of the Dead Air and and Death Toll campaigns to Versus.

PC owners will have to wait, but, assuming all goes to plan, not for long. According to Valve, the PC debut of the free add-on is "targeted for release later in the day."

As much as I loved L4D when it was released, the shine soon faded after playing all the campaigns multiple times on various difficulties.

VS mode kept it alive for a bit longer, but soon it just became repetitive.

I really hope this upcoming mode spices up the gameplay for me, I've been feeling bad about neglecting this game for so long.

    I have friends who run a server and tweak the game themselves, and that's kept it quite interesting for me.
    
    I don't know if it would be anywhere near as fun just having to find random games all the time. I probably just wouldn't play most of the time.

  ive played the game since release. maybe i havent gotten bored with it like you have because ive had numerous friends who want to play. to each his own, but for me i can not wait for this. DT and DA will be a welcome addition to VS., but i am craving more campaigns. and Expert Campaign is so intense.

  I'm still constantly playing versus. sure the coop campaign gets kinda boring, but expert is fun from time to time, 10 dmg zombies and some crazy friendly fire changes the playstyle.
  
  But versus keeps evolving, can't wait to check out official death toll and dead air, non officials are bugged and don't have ladders / textures for infected. I also can't wait for some really really good camapaigns to play on, I was hoping for a new campaign from valve tbh.
