First and foremost, it's probably the most faithful video incarnation of the zombie genre that fans have ever been treated to. Yes, even better than Resident Evil 4 On April 4, 2013 a Resident Evil 6 crossover DLC was released for the PC version. It adds the main characters and two monsters from Left 4 Dead 2 to the PC-exclusive The Mercenaries: No Mercy mode in Resident Evil 6. Also three monsters from Resident Evil 6 are added as replacement skins to existing monsters on the PC version of Left 4 Dead 2. [113] [114] Furthermore, the game supports excellent co-op play, with 2-player support locally and 2-4-player support online. The game includes many melee weapons and other valuable equipment for fighting adversaries up close and personal. Along with the melee weapons featured in the original game, players may expect to wield additional weapons such as axes, chainsaws, frying pans, etc. Firearms are also accessible, but melee weapons are the norm because battling zombies generally needs a little elbow grease. In addition, players can carry various throwing weapons and support supplies, such as flashlights to scare foes and illuminate the path in dark situations, and healing goods, such as first aid kits and defibrillator kits. AI Director 2.0 allows for customization. The AI Director 2.0 takes Left 4 Dead 2’s dynamic gameplay to the next level by allowing the Director to procedurally adjust weather effects, world items, and passageways and customize the adversary population, effects, and noises to match the players’ performance.

To promote the game and provide basic training to players before starting the game, Valve chose to develop a pre-rendered intro movie. This movie was released on Halloween [51] and shows events prior to the beginning of the "No Mercy" campaign. [52] Valve chose an intro movie over in-game training mechanics because they wanted the players to be immediately dropped into a zombie apocalypse. Valve later detailed in their official Left 4 Dead blog how they designed the movie, from a basic animatic in July 2008 to the final result for the launch of the game.
