Free content in both games for PC players.


Capcom and Valve have revealed the Resident Evil 6 x Left 4 Dead 2 crossover project. According to the announcement today, characters from Left 4 Dead 2 will be featured in the PC release of Resident Evil 6, while Resident Evil 6 enemies will appear in the PC version of Left 4 Dead 2. The crossover content will be free in both games.

Resident Evil 6 will allow players to choose Left 4 Dead 2’s Coach, Nick, Ellis or Rochelle while playing the PC’s exclusive The Mercenaries No Mercy mode, and each will come equipped with “a special customized weapon load-out created just for use in Resident Evil 6.” Special Infected zombies The Witch and Mini Tank will also appear in the mode. The Left 4 Dead 2 content will be available in the PC version of Resident Evil 6 beginning on April 5th.

Meanwhile, Left 4 Dead 2 will receive the Lepotitsa, Napad and Ogroman enemies from Resident Evil 6, all “brought to life in Left 4 Dead 2 by Valve’s renowned developers using its Steam Workshop tools.” The additional enemies will be available this Spring.

“We’re huge Resident Evil fans, so when the opportunity arose to work directly with Capcom to combine L4D2 and RE6, we jumped at it,” said Valve’s Chet Faliszek.

“The Resident Evil 6 team really enjoyed working on this crossover, and we’re confident that our fans will have a great time with it too! We hope you enjoy this unique content,” Resident Evil 6 producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi added.
