Left 4 Dead 'Dead Before Dawn' released

Based on the Crossroads Mall from the movie Dawn of the Dead, 'Dead Before Dawn' is the highly anticipated custom campaign for Valve's zombie-survival shooter.

The Crossroads Mall map was originally made for the Half-Life 2 modification, No More Room in Hell and has been in development since November 2005. There were rumours of a fifth playable character included in the campaign but this is not the case. Instead, CJ the Crossroads Mall head of security is an NPC and will interact with the survivors.
