Left 4 Dead 2, played as a Minecraft player. You are in a real Left 4 Dead 2 campaign; everything that walks, shoots or heals has turned into Minecraft, read from your own copy of Minecraft: Java Edition.
What changes
- You and your team are Minecraft players - Steve, Alex and the other default skins, with blocky arms in first person.
- The horde is Minecraft zombies (with husks and drowned) in place of every common infected.
- Special infected are Minecraft mobs: Creeper = Boomer, Iron Golem = Tank, Skeleton = Spitter, Enderman = Smoker, Spider = Jockey, Slime = Hunter, Chicken = Witch, Zombie Pigman = Charger. They behave like the L4D2 originals and sound like Minecraft.
- Guns look crafted in Minecraft. Each keeps its own shape but is made of diamond, emerald, iron, copper, gold or netherite, with wooden stocks, and is held thin like a Minecraft sword.
- Loot is Minecraft items: golden apple (first aid kit), potions (pills and adrenaline), totem of undying (defibrillator), fire charge (molotov), TNT (pipe bomb), splash potion (bile jar), and swords, axes, pickaxes, shovels and a trident for melee.
- Build and mine. Mouse3 places a cobblestone block, Shove mines one (a melee swing mines in one hit). You start each map with 16 blocks and mobs drop more when you kill them. Zombies claw through your walls in time, and an Iron Golem walks straight through.
- Props too: ammo piles are chests, gas cans are lava buckets, propane tanks are TNT.
- Minecraft HUD: hearts, hotbar slots, pixel item icons, skin faces as portraits and Minecraft's font.
How to play
Press Play. The first start takes a few extra seconds while the mobs, items and HUD are built from your own Minecraft and Left 4 Dead 2 files; then Left 4 Dead 2 opens. Choose Campaign > Single Player and pick any campaign.
Single player with bot survivors. When you close the game the mashup takes itself out again, so Left 4 Dead 2 started from Steam is the normal game.
You need
- Left 4 Dead 2 (Steam)
- Minecraft: Java Edition, started at least once so its files are on your PC
Other Left 4 Dead 2 add-ons that replace survivors, infected, weapons or the HUD will clash with this one - switch them off in the game's Add-ons menu.
