Left 4 Dead is a series that can live on for years through downloadable content. Killing zombies with friends is fun no matter where the setting happens to be. Left 4 Dead 2 has only been out for a hot second and our brows are already raising in curiosity after looking at a teaser site for Midnight Riders.
This could be a hint of upcoming downloadable content or we could just be getting our hopes up. However we do have good reason to believe our crazy ideas.
Midnight Riders is the name of a band in Left 4 Dead 2. In the episode “Dark Carnival” the survivors fight off a relentless horde of zombies on a concert stage for Midnight Riders.
The teaser site has the four band members posing in classic L4D fashion complete with watercolor style animation. Midnight Rider is also an achievement you get after completing that campaign.
The final indication is the words “Coming Soon” printed on the bottom of the page.
It also doesn’t hurt to point out there are four band members pictured and Left 4 Dead always has four survivors.
It may be a rumor but our crystal ball is looking pretty shiny right now.

Not to mention that the WHOIS information for the site indicates Valve Corporation as the Admin Contact (and it uses Valve's DNS servers).
