Zombie hunters rejoice - the new Left 4 Dead Survival Pack has finally arrived, for both the PC and Xbox 360 - and it's totally free of charge for everybody with a copy of the game.
We've got the full PC changelog, outlining all the changes, which you can read while the update's auto-downloading through Steam. Of course, you get the new Survival gameplay mode, 16 new maps (including Last Stand), a collection of versus changes, a handful of server changes and the addition of lobby join/quit messages.
...if this is all sounding a bit enticing but you don't have the game yet, both the Steam and retail versions of the game should be available now for a "special price". What are you waiting for?
