How this happened is unknown, but you start as a survivor who’s been bitten by a new zombie. The zombie virus has spread throughout California, and the state is now under full quarantine. Here are 16 things you should know before picking it up.ĭead Island 2 takes place in Los Angeles ten years after the events of Dead Island 1 and Riptide. Though completely different from previously planned versions, Dead Island 2 could be a shot in the decaying arm for the series and a compelling sequel in its own right. It featured a new cast of characters and covered different ruined locations in Los Angeles. Developed by Dambuster Studios of Homefront: The Revolution fame, this new version of Dead Island 2 was about slaying zombies in the most extravagantly excessive ways possible. Then, at last year’s Gamescom Opening Night Live, Deep Silver re-revealed the game, showcasing a gorier, over-the-top action title. Such was the lack of updates and release date that Deep Silver and then THQ Nordic was assuring players every year that it wasn’t cancelled.
The initial trailer seemed promising enough, and then…the waiting began.ĭevelopment started at Yager Development of Spec Ops: The Line fame before shifting to Sumo Digital, which was also dropped. After all, this is a game announced in 2014, with an exclusive beta and content on PS4 (now lost to memory, thankfully). It’s been said plenty of times but bears repeating – the fact that Dead Island 2 has gone gold and releases on April 21st for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC is an incredible achievement.
