Posted By | On 07th, Jun. 2012

A “reliable source” has told CVG that Overkill Entertainment, developers of Payday: The Heist, are working in collaboration with Valve on a Left 4 Dead prequel, focusing on the zombie outbreak.

The game’s supposed to feature gameplay elements from both, Payday and the Left 4 Dead series.

“[It’s a] very cool blend of Payday and Left 4 Dead,” Playdead announced this themselves a little while back.

“As perceptive gamers will have noticed, several hints have recently been dropped into Payday: The Heist, which has led to various rumors,” reads a statement. “

We are excited to be able to confirm that an in-depth collaboration between Overkill and Valve is currently in production.

“We are working on a very cool blend of Payday and Left 4 Dead. I am sure it is so exciting that it will have some players check into the hospital before we are done.”
