Witch Playability has been Looselipped!

[Necrocide]

Outside of all this, I suppose it's worth reminding ourselves that L4D itself remains an energetic and often terrifying co-op shooter - a tense and bloody adventure through four varied campaigns in which you play the role of either a human survivor or one of five uniquely talented infected antagonists

If you count them; 5 would have to include the Witch unless there's a new infected type.

YYYYYEEEEESSSSS!!!!!

YYYYYEEEEESSSSS!!!!!

I would keep my pants on just yet. This is most likely a simple mistake done by a simple journalist. Seriosuly, it's not the first time somebody wrote something similar, like five playable Boss Infected.

I mean, what do you expect playing the Which would be like? Press LMB to cry and RMB to rock back and forth until somebody comes by?

Considering that the Witch is supposed to be the most powerful infected (next to the Tank, probably) being able to play as her would be overpowered. She's powerful enough to warrant being able to get by her undetected and, like Dead Fish said, players probably don't want to simulate being huddled in a corner and weeping.

Nope.
