Pripyat campaign released for Left 4 Dead 2

The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone is a jolly fascinating place but too expensive to visit and far too terrifying to tour virtually in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series. Thankfully, some kindly modders are treating us to a slightly friendlier whistlestop tour of Pripyat with Dniepr, a Left 4 Dead 2 custom campaign released today after three years of development.

The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone is a jolly fascinating place but too expensive to visit and far too terrifying to tour virtually in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series. Thankfully, some kindly modders are treating us to a slightly friendlier whistlestop tour of Pripyat with Dniepr, a Left 4 Dead 2 custom campaign released today after three years of development.

The four-chapter campaign is based upon the abandoned city of Pripyat, mixing real places with slightly less real ones. Dniepr also includes loads of custom models, textures, sounds, and music. As well as plain old co-op monster-mashing, it also brings Versus and Survival fun.

Download Dniepr from Steam Workshop, awkwardly split into loads of little pieces, and visit the official site for more information. Also, look, trailer:

      It's about time they revised the rule that workshop items must be 200mb or less, with so many custom campaigns breaking a gig.

      Oh my god this sounds awesome! I'm completely fascinated by Chernobyl too. I might have to install L4D2 and get the old crew back together (paging tinfoilhatter)!

        It def an awesome setting. One of the developers worked on Dishonored so this should be great.

      Looks like my evening game with Maddog and dognose has a selected map.

        After having the download abort four times, I'm going to wait for mirrors in the morning and try again.

      Oooh, sweet. Sounds like a perfect reason to start up L4D again.

      Nice. I've been looking for a reason to fire up L4D2. New (well done) campaigns make me all tingly in the gentleman region.
