Left 4 Dead 2's The Passing DLC has dropped on Xbox Live today, reuniting the old Left 4 Dead favourites Bill, Francis, Zoe and Louis for a new campaign - and apparently, one of them won't make it to the end.
But that's not all. The Passing DLC, now on Xbox Live Marketplace for 560 Microsoft Points will also introduce weekly events every Thursday called Mutations.
The first Mutation will be 'Realism Versus', available through the Versus option on the main menu. Valve's tip? Look out for the Jockey and have a working microphone "so your teammates can hear your screams for help."
On the Left 4 Dead Blog, Valve also detail one of the other Mutations to follow - 'Chainsaw Massacre.' This will be a campaign Mutation that will give you a chainsaw with unlimited gas, thousands of zombies and...nothing else. Let the limbs and heads fly!
Brace yourself for more blood and screeching zombies in one place than you thought humanly possible. It's gonna be intense.
