"Find a rural holdout being used by the military to rescue survivors."

Blood Harvest is the fourth campaign in Left 4 Dead. The Survivors must travel to a barricaded farmhouse and get rescued by the United States military. The escape vehicle is a United States military armored personnel carrier. Although there is no Official chronological order to the campaigns in Left 4 Dead, It is believed that Blood Harvest is the last due to the survivors being rescued by the military in the end, and not an unofficial evacuation method.

The following are gameplay videos showing walkthroughs for all 5 of Blood Harvest's chapters:

  1. The Woods
  2. The Tunnel
  3. The Bridge
  4. The Train Station
  5. Farmhouse Finale

Please know that the gameplay videos are on each campaign's info page not on each map page.

[edit] Setting

As revealed by a park sign at the starting location, this campaign takes place in and around Allegheny National Forest in Western Pennsylvania, a couple hours' drive from the city of Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh (and its surrounding region) is famous for providing the settings to many films such as Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead.

[edit] Official description

Zombies lurk behind every tree, over every hilltop and behind every shadow in this terrifying moonlit search for a rumored evacuation zone to the north: several acres of back-country farmland taken over by the military to get the last of humanity out of Ground Zero. Plunge through pitch-black forests, stumble blindly through fields of swaying corn, and take aim at the silhouettes leaping at you from the darkness—all towards finding a hold-out that might already have been abandoned to the horde.[1]

[edit] Behind the Scenes

Beta versions of Blood Harvest were much greener and brighter than the final version. In addition, there is no fog, making the sky much more visible.

[edit] Trivia

  • Zoey can be seen in the same position as she is in on the No Mercy campaign poster, except not crouching (and No third Hand).
  • The tagline is "No hope. No cure. No problem." Alongside Swamp Fever's tagline, it may mean that there is no known or even no cure at all for the infection.
  • Corner of the poster of this campaign can be seen in Dark Carnival's poster.
  • This is the only campaign which doesn't have any miniguns.

[edit] Writings on the wall

In the safe rooms, the writings on the wall are telling the remaining Survivors to follow the train tracks to get evacuated to the safe zone. Additionally, when walking to the farm where the APC will arrive, there will be two signs on a post. Both appear to be from the military. One says "Keep your hands above your head in the field at all times or you will be shot on sight!" while another says:

  1. Do not run at military personnel.
  2. Do not ignore personnel when they address you.
  3. Do not make any violent or sudden movements.
These signs are to help the military tell who is infected or not.
