when does left 4 dead 2 take place
Left 4 Dead 2 Like its predecessor, Left 4 Dead 2 is set in the aftermath of a worldwide pandemic of an infectious disease known as the "Green Flu", which rapidly transforms humans into zombie-like creatures and mutated forms that demonstrate extreme aggression towards non-infected (much like the infected in 28 Days Later). Few humans are immune to the disease, still carrying the infection but showing no symptoms. The Civil Emergency and Defense Agency (CEDA) and the U.S. Military create safe zones to attempt to evacuate as many American survivors as possible. Left 4 Dead 2 introduces four new Survivorsâ€”Coach, Ellis, Nick, and Rochelle, who are immune to the disease and have individual back stories that are provided through character dialogue.[37][38][39][40][41] While the game is intended as a continuation of the original, occurring one week after the first game begins, Valve decided to create a new group of Survivors due to the change in location.[42] Like the first game, the five campaigns in Left 4 Dead 2 are set across a story arc,[43] set in the Southern United States, which starts in Savannah, Georgia, and ends in New Orleans, Louisiana.[3][4] The four Survivors have to fight their way through hordes of Infected, using safehouses along the way to rest and recuperate in order to reach extraction points.
Red Dead Redemption 2 Red Dead Redemption 2 was developed by Rockstar Studios,[13] a collaborative effort between all of Rockstar Games' studios functioning as a single team,[14] using the proprietary Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE).[15] Woody Jackson, who co-composed the score of Red Dead Redemption, reprises his role.[4] The game was announced in October 2016.[16][17] In the two days prior, the company had used various social media platforms as well as their own website to release two teaser images in the color and theme of Red Dead Redemption.[18][19] The teaser images led to considerable attention and raised the stock price of its parent company Take-Two Interactive by nearly six percent.[20][21] On the day of its announcement for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, some fans started petitioning Rockstar Games for the game to be made available on Microsoft Windows as well.[22] Per an exclusivity agreement with Sony Interactive Entertainment, certain online game content will be timed exclusives for the PlayStation 4.[23] Originally due for release in the second half of 2017, the game has been delayed twice: first to Q1/Q2 2018,[24] and later to October 26, 2018.[25]
