Left 4 Dead

Cooperative zombie survival

Left 4 Dead is a cooperative survival horror video game series where four players fight through hordes of zombies to reach safety.

Released by Valve in 2008, it popularized the four-player co-op zombie shooter format and introduced special infected types that have become genre standards.

We're doing a Left 4 Dead run tonight.

The title puns on "left for dead"—abandoned and presumed dying.
