Who might be developing Left 4 Dead 3 It was heavily predicted that Turtle Rock Studios, the developer behind the original Left 4 Dead, or Valve, which developed L4D2 itself, would be taking on the development of L4D3.When you buy through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.Does that make you feel old Because Im feeling pretty ancient right now.Theres been no announcement of Left 4 Dead 3 for nearly a decade now, which is surprisingbecause Left 4 Dead 2 ended on a huge cliffhanger, because it was enormously popular and successful, and because rumors of a sequel have been popping up for years.
As far as we know, theres still no Left 4 Dead 3, Valve even staunchly denied it in January 2020. The lack of an official announcement from Valve hasnt stopped people from creating plenty of hoaxes and fan-made leaks in the last few years. If this doesnt prove just how starved zombie enthusiasts are for even the slightest hint of L4D3, then I dont know what does. Weve gone back through the last decade of Left 4 Dead 3 rumors to determine what was fake, what was plausible, and what those leaks might be able to tell us. As of 2020, Valve is absolutely not making Left 4 Dead 3 Early in 2020, HTC China president Alvin Wang Graylin shared a few slides from his talk on the future of VR, including one that said, Valve HL AlyxLFD3 will drive consumer and AAA studio interest. Naturally, folks ran with the idea that this was some insider confirmation of Left 4 Dead 3, despite the acronym being slightly off. Valve quickly stepped in and provided a statement to IGN saying, we did briefly explore some Left 4 Dead next opportunities a few years ago. But we are absolutely not working on anything L4D related now, and havent for years. ![]() Unfortunately, for now a new L4D game is not something were working on. Graylin then clarified on Twitter that unfortunately his LFD4 example was just personal speculation, given that hes a fan of the series himself. Drat. Is there proof Left 4 Dead 3 is in development Honestly, theres little to go on. The series lead writer Chet Faliszek hinted at the possibility of a third installment in an interview with Eurogamer back in 2012, but weve had nothing but radio silence from official channels since. We were recently teased with an impressive game trailer that seemed almost official but unfortunately wasnt, as confirmed to us by Valve itself. ![]() Valve News Network s Tyler McVicker unearthed several references and assets in its source files, including a new special infected enemy called The Nocturnal, a daynight cycle, and an older male character. Whether he was supposed to be an NPC or a Survivor is unknown. A direct connection between the files and the games development was never found. Later that year, Valve fansite ValveTime reported that employee Tristan Reidford appeared to leak proof of L4D3s development after publishing a Destinations Workshop Tools tutorial to Steam. The tutorial included a screenshot of his Windows Explorer favorites, with a left4dead3 folder listed at the top. The image was quickly removed and replaced with a different one. Was this a legitimate mistake or an intentional tease An image uploaded by Valve that lists left4dead3 in the file structure.
