Valve has consistently been at the helm of developing groundbreaking video games that end up being quite legendary in their own right, and the Left 4 Dead series is no exception to this golden rule. While it may suffer from the same trilogy curse — or lack thereof — that most of Valve's properties suffer from for some inane reason, there's no denying the fact that Left 4 Dead is still a brilliant title that deserves all the recognition it gets... and more.

However, with the last game in this series releasing all the way back in 2009, it's only a given that most fans of this title would like to play more multiplayer games in the same vein. Keeping this in mind, here are some of the best multiplayer titles that fans of the Left 4 Dead series should definitely try out.

10 Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

While it might be fun to rip on the Call of Duty series, there's no denying that each new game in the series features a wealth of content that would satiate any fan of the series... even though innovation might not be the utmost priority.

In this regard, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is a great title, with the Zombies mode being particularly great for anyone into Left 4 Dead's gameplay.

9 Battlefield V

The Battlefield series has been hit-or-miss when it comes to their releases, and while the verdict for the latest game in the series is still very much up in the air, there's no denying the fact that Battlefield V is definitely a solid title for anyone wanting to emulate what it's like to be in a large-scale battle.

The multiplayer games are quite a blast to play through, and the need to group up and tackle challenges as a team becomes paramount as a player becomes more well-versed with the systems of Battlefield.

8 Titanfall 2

For players who want all the fancy movement mechanics that some of the zombies have in Left 4 Dead without having to sacrifice their virtual humanity, there's no better game that fits the bill in this regard than Titanfall 2.

Parkouring around the map and laying waste to enemies is easily one of the best parts of the game, and it's no wonder why so many gamers treasure Titanfall 2 as one of the most underrated multiplayer shooters around.

7 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege

But of course, it would be impossible to talk about games that feature squad-based gameplay without mentioning the most popular game in this domain — Rainbow Six Siege.

There's a reason why people play Siege with such a passion — teaming up properly with your squad and accomplishing the objectives of the mission is an absolute blast... unless, that is, the players just end up wiping out the entire opposition instead.

6 League Of Legends

While the barrier to entry for League of Legends might be high and the majority of the player base is ridiculously toxic at times, that one rare moment when everything in a game clicks and players are able to enjoy all the positive facets of the game easily ranks amongst some of the best gaming moments of all time.

The MOBA genre is one of the hottest things right now, and people can definitely thank games like League of Legends and DOTA 2 for helping out with that.

5 Rocket League

It was only a given that a game where people used cars to play soccer would be a blast in every sense of the word, which is the biggest reason why Rocket League has become such a major phenomenon.

While the game's ranked matches might be insanely competitive at times, casual gamers looking for a good time can also try out a wealth of game mods without feeling overly pressured.

4 Overwatch

A hero shooter that has character splattered over each and every one of its nooks and crannies, Overwatch is a brilliant title that took over the gaming world by storm when it was released.

With interest in the game dwindling slowly but surely, there was no better time for Blizzard to announce Overwatch 2. Hopefully, this sequel will prove to be just as groundbreaking as the previous title and help the company regenerate its goodwill after a string of bad business decisions.

3 Splatoon 2

One could only expect Nintendo to innovate upon a multiplayer shooting game where killing other players isn't the goal of the title at all — rather, it's about painting the arena full of ink!

Splatoon's concept serves as a breath of fresh air in a realm of multiplayer gaming that had remained stagnant for the longest time. The excellent mechanics of this title coupled with some truly entertaining gameplay make for a blast every time players start this title up.

2 Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

The original Counter-Strike was one of the most popular squad-based shooters of all time, and it goes without saying that Global Offensive has successfully modernized the concept of this title and allowed a whole new generation to experience the heart-pounding gameplay of this series.

Regardless of what team players might be a part of, there's no denying that taking care of objectives and laying to waste any player is quite a blast indeed.

1 Team Fortress 2

It's a testament to Valve's brilliant game design that Team Fortress 2 still stands strong as one of the best games on Steam, even though it has been close to 14 years since the game had released!

One can argue that Team Fortress 2 was actually the first title with character-based squad play before Overwatch made it the norm, which is why so many rabid fans still play the game religiously to this day.
