Left 4 Dead 2 The Last Stand Update Coming September 24

The Last Stand update for Valve’s 2009 cooperative multiplayer shooter Left 4 Dead 2 will be released for PC on Sept. 24.

The free update, announced last month, is an official update to the game that was developed by the community with Valve providing code support and bug fixes, according to a NME interview.

The update adds a new campaign, The Last Stand, which was originally a Survival map for the first Left 4 Dead. It has been expanded upon and will be the first new content for the game since the Cold Stream DLC in 2012.

Alongside the new campaign includes two new melee weapons, four Scavenge maps, 26 Survival maps, and 30 new achievements. The main characters also received some love with new voicelines and animations.
