If you decided to pick up Left 4 Dead 2 this week you probably have played the “Dark Carnival” campaign already and are aware of the ending: in order to escape the zombie-infested Whispering Oaks amusement park, you must start the concert at the amphitheater. Annnnd, as you also may know, the stage is set up for the fictional band the “Midnight Riders” to play at. Throughout the campaign there are posters and memos on the safehouse walls about the biker band escaping Whispering Oaks, and now the Midnight Riders have their own teaser site up.
What could the “coming soon” mean? Well Michael McWhertor from Kotaku speculates that the Midnight Riders may be playable in a new DLC campaign, or that you may be able to choose to play one of the Midnight Riders in the Dark Carnival campaign. Either way, this would be super original and I look forward to slaying zombies as a middle-aged, tattooed biker dude (see: Francis).
