Valve is creating a new add-on campaign called The Sacrifice. The campaign is being released for both Left 4 Dead 1 and Left 4 Dead 2. Whether or not the actual maps will be identical or not is unknown at the moment.

The Sacrifice in Left 4 Dead 1 will feature the new campaign, but none of the features of Left 4 Dead 2. Melee weapons, new guns, new infected, etc. will NOT be added to the L4D1 version of the campaign. It's simply a new set of maps to play through.

The Left 4 Dead 2 version will still feature the same Left 4 Dead 1 survivors (Bill, Zoey, Francis, Louis), but will have all the features of Left 4 Dead 2 as well, including the new weapons and infected. It will basically be like a new set of maps for Left 4 Dead 2, as well as the L4D1 survivors being ported.

In both versions of The Sacrifice, players will be able to choose which of the four survivors sacrifices him/herself at the end of the campaign. [You all know who the canon choice is anyway.]

In addition, the No Mercy campaign is also being ported to Left 4 Dead 2. L4D2's No Mercy will have the original Left 4 Dead 1 survivors, as well as all the new weapons and new infected of L4D2.

Valve is also making a 150-page digital comic to be released with The Sacrifice giving background on the L4D1 survivor's lives before and during the infection, as well as the final canon sacrifice by [that survivor] before The Passing.

It's a shame that steam seems to be overwhelmed, because I can't start the original L4D download....
