Valve has officially made the Left 4 Dead 2 DLC announcement that they teased earlier this month. Looks like some old favorites will be appearing for the first expansion, and we don't mean the Midnight Riders.

Dubbed "The Passing," the expansion will bring the survivors of the original Left 4 Dead together with the cast of Left 4 Dead 2 for the first time. It will be set just after L4D2's Dead Center campaign, and will take place in a small town in rural Georgia, with players controlling the sequel's protagonists.

"The Passing will become the most important campaign in the Left 4 Dead story, as all the Survivors are being called together in one campaign," said Valve vice president of marketing Doug Lombardi.

"It will also be a huge offering of new gameplay content, with something new for every game mode plus a new uncommon common and weaponry."

The Passing will be out early spring on the PC and Xbox 360. Pricing will be announced soon.

Beware of Hacking and Password Theft

Ladies and gentlemen, there has been confirmed reports of hacking and/or password theft of Steam accounts. The situations encountered have begun as a "friend" of a Steam user sending a message via Steam chat in regards to a server sponsorship or something similar, and the "friend" needs the Steam user's support to get the sponsorship, followed by a link that may seem fairly legit. Do not, under any circumstances, even go to the site. We are currently not sure if there are malicious programs running in the background of the website that steal the visitor's password, or if there is a login system that then steals the account information. The website will look very, very close to the real steampowered.com website, and is difficult to distinguish except by the URL address, which may also be close to the real Valve website.

Please exercise caution when chatting with an unfamiliar user, and certainly do not make it easier for this robber to get access to your Steam account. Protect your account information and password.

Happy holidays, and happy gaming to all.

L4D-World's registration has been experiencing some problems recently but is temporarily fixed for now. The problem was due to an issue with the captcha system, the captcha system will be reintroduced as soon as it's fixed.
