Here’s a look at seven early con­cept designs for Valve’s Left 4 Dead, posters that blur the line between the 2008 orig­i­nal game for PC and Xbox 360, and Left 4 Dead 2, released one year later.

Seen at a Valve game artist’s online port­fo­lio, they fea­ture envi­ron­ments famil­iar to Left 4 Dead 2 play­ers, like dank south­ern motels and trailer parks. Other poster con­cepts fea­ture looks at the sequel’s swamp and amuse­ment park lev­els, but each poster stars the orig­i­nal Left 4 Dead cast of Louis, Zoey, Fran­cis and Bill.
