Swamp Fever

Swamp Fever is a new campaign spanning four chapters which takes place in a "swampy" location in Left 4 Dead 2 after evacuating from Savannah. The Survivors will reach this swamp and escape from it in a fishing boat familiar to the one in Death Toll. It is playable in Comic Con 2009 through July 23rd to July 26th and will be fully playable to the public views in the Left 4 Dead 2 Demo, which will most likely be released shortly before its release date in November 2009. It seems as though it's a showcase for the AI Director's new, more in-depth level controls—such as the weather, and the new water system which slows the Survivors down and does not allow them to run.

Swamp Fever is also the only campaign that will contain the new Uncommon Infected, mud men, which are hard to spot, and extremely agile compared to the other Common Infected.
