Riverside Park is the main setting for the final chapter of the "Death Toll" campaign in Left 4 Dead. It can also be seen briefly in "The Last Stand" campaign in Left 4 Dead 2.
Seeing the town completely overrun and no signs of any survivors or the military, the group head through the park to the boathouse to find a boat and make their way out of there.
History[]
Picnic area inside Riverside Park
This recreational park is located along the river. One of Riverside's income sources to the city is the fishing industry, where citizens of this town would use fishing vessels and fish just off the coast in the river (such as John and Amanda Slater). Residents of Riverside would also spend time here at the park relaxing and engaging in outdoor and water activities. Visitors to the town can go swimming, have picnics, go camping, bring in campers/trailers, or rent boats at the boathouse, which makes this park a "must-see" attraction to tourists passing Riverside.
Current Status[]
The Military Humvee parked outside the civilian house near the park
The park is completely empty and abandoned with only a few wandering infected. The military was using a nearby house as a command post, but once the infection hit, the soldiers pulled out of Riverside and the remaining troops were killed by the Infected in the house.
The Survivors pass through the house and head out the backyard, which leads into Riverside Park. They continue up the hill and into the picnic area near the boathouse. John and Amanda Slater have their fishing boat anchored near the shore and use a radio to look for survivors who can help defend them as they make their way to another military outpost. Once the Survivors are ready, they radio him and hold out until his arrival while facing an endless wave of infected.
Notes[]
- Riverside Park is the first park that players visit in the series, before Bienville Park in Left 4 Dead 2 and Rayford Park in "The Passing" were added.
- Across the river in the distance, the Survivors can see the city of Newburg, where the next campaign ("Dead Air") takes place.
- A Tank or a Witch may spawn somewhere in the park before the Survivors can start the finale.
