Speaking to 1UP, Valve co-founder Gabe Newell has revealed that while Valve doesn’t currently have the resources to make Left 4 Dead on PS3, its publishing partner EA is very much up for the idea.
“We don’t have the bandwidth. For The Orange Box, EA did the PS3 version. They’re interested in getting a PS3 version done. We just have to figure out where the resources can come from. We don’t have the bandwidth. We’re doing the 360 and PC version ourselves,” explained Newell.
Asked if Valve would handle the development, should the game be ported to PS3, Newell stated:
“I think we need to do a good job with supporting the PS3 with the Source engine. Our engine licensees would like us to do it. I think we need to invest more in getting that in there. So I think that we’ll, over time, be directly more and more supporting the PS3 as our bandwidth allows us to.”
Left 4 Dead is scheduled for release in November for Xbox 360 and PC.
