The Passing

"The Passing will become the most important campaign in the Left 4 Dead story, as all the Survivors are being called together in one campaign."

- Doug Lombardi

The Passing is an upcoming DLC for Left 4 Dead 2. It will include a new campaign and a "new co-operative challenge mode of play." It also introduces the a new firearm, the M60; the Golf Club, and a new Uncommon Infected called the Fallen Survivor.

The Passing will take place between Dead Center and Dark Carnival, in a rural town in Georgia. One of the main features of this campaign is a meet-up between the Left 4 Dead 2 Survivors and the original Survivors. (Note that the original Survivors will not be playable.) The original Survivors will appear in the campaign's first chapter, where they will meet up with the new Survivors. They will then appear once again in the third chapter, to help Coach, Nick, Rochelle, and Ellis escape. The campaign will be playable in all of the current game modes, as well as the newly featured one. It will be free for PC, and about 560MS on the Xbox 360, and the release date is stated for late March for both the PC and Xbox 360 versions.
