Earthfall
Games Like Left 4 Dead if You’re Looking for Something Similar
Whereas Left 4 Dead tasks players with escaping from the enemy infected, Earthfall has them taking on a surge of invading alien creatures. As four survivors of the event, players must make their way through 10 different levels while blasting their way through everything the alien legion has to offer, from shambling drones to explosive variants and four-legged capture types. Working together is key to everyone’s survival, and losing sight of your allies can quickly turn the tables against you.
While the game certainly isn’t perfect now – the maps and missions can feel repetitive, and the creature deployment can be too formulaic and predictable – it does offer some new innovations on the Left 4 Dead framework that could be honed and refined with future updates. Plus, as far as co-op survival shooters go, Earthfall apes the 2008 Valve offering to a tee and can make fans feel right at home for however long they play.
