Shared by user @gabefollower on Twitter, a new leak associated with Valve has now directly mentioned Left 4 Dead 3. This leak in question is actually tied to a new version of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on Valve’s Source 2 engine, which will reportedly be releasing soon. Despite being associated with CS: GO, though, the code of this new leak also contains a reference to Left 4 Dead 3 outright.
So what does this mention of Left 4 Dead 3 indicate? Well, we have absolutely no idea for the time being. Although this code leak is said to be legitimate by @gabefollower, it’s hard to understand why Left 4 Dead 3 could be found within something associated with CS: GO. The simplest explanation is that Valve might purely be looking to have some fun with fans as it is aware that this code would surely end up being analyzed.
With all of this in mind, it’s worth stressing that you take everything that has been outlined here with a massive grain of salt for the moment. Although it’s exciting to think that Valve might be doing something new with the Left 4 Dead series, this leak is by no means a guarantee that a third installment in the zombie-killing series is on the way just yet. Still, it’s fun to have newfound hope about L4D3, even if that hope eventually leads to more sadness.
Do you think that there’s a chance that Valve could finally be returning to the Left 4 Dead franchise in some capacity? Or is this mention of Left 4 Dead 3 in this leak nothing more than a joke? Let me know your own thoughts either down in the comments or hit me up on Twitter at @MooreMan12.
