The Jockey is a new form of Special Infected that will appear in Left 4 Dead 2. It will attack Survivors from behind and jump onto and cling to their head and upper back. From there, they can control the Survivor while doing so.[1] It appears that the Jockey has been mutated by the infection to the extent that he has a hump, which is what causes him to hop around in a spider monkey like motion. However, he can jump great distances, yet nowhere near as far as the Hunter. His lips and the skin surrounding have also deteriorated away. When on a Survivor he claws at them with his free hand while leaning in a direction to cause the Survivors to stumble. The player can try to steer in a better direction, but can't outright resist where the Jockey drives them. He has large claws, used to help control the Survivors, and wears a loose vest alongside blue boxers. His approach can be denoted by his loud, maniacal cackling.[2] Like the Spitter, it too appears to have pupils.
Oh god, Versus is going to be a lot more fun:p
