The game is set in the aftermath of a global pandemic that has turned most of the human population into zombies. The game’s four protagonists—Nick, Coach, Ellis, and Rochelle—fight their way through hordes of zombies to escape from New Orleans.
Background:
The game is a sequel to the 2008 game Left 4 Dead. The development team decided to create a sequel because they felt that the original game’s story had only been partially told. Left 4 Dead 2 builds upon the first game’s mechanics and introduces new features, such as melee weapons and new types of zombies.
The game received positive reviews from critics. Many praised the game’s increased level of detail, improved artificial intelligence, and more diverse gameplay. However, some criticized the game’s short campaign length and lack of innovation.
Left 4 Dead 2 was a commercial success, selling over 3 million copies within its first month of release. The game has been praised for its cooperative gameplay and zombie-themed atmosphere.
