Late Britain is a campaign by Spoon God, which brings a British environment into Left 4 Dead 2.

Unlike the American cultures experienced in Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2, England has very strict gun laws, and as of such barely any are owned by civillians. The United Kingdom has one of the lowest rates of gun homicides in the world. As a comparison, it's rate is lower than the EU average, and 4 times lower than the United States. As of such, the first part will be played with 'Tier 0' weapons - melee weapons and pistols. It is planned that in a later level, the survivors will signal a passing cargo plane which will drop a crate of weapons, but there will be very few ammo stocks compared to most other campaigns.

The finale will also differ from most other campaigns; instead of waiting for a rescue vehicle or gathering up fuel the survivors will have stumbled upon ground zero of the outbreak, and will undertake the task of destroying the infection at it's source.

One current aesthetic issue is that VALVe's vehicle models have the steering wheel on the left-hand side, whereas British vehicles' steering wheels are located on the left. If anyone can simply flip the models (any way will do) and re-export them, it would be much appreciated.
