About this game

Developed by Deep Silver & Dambuster Studios and published by Deep Silver

The highly-anticipated sequel to Dead Island is here now with Dead Island 2! Jump straight into HELL-A and survive the horrors as one of the few people that are resistant to the pathogen. You, and only a handful of survivors left, are what's left of the City of Angels.

Deluxe Edition

Jump into gruesome first-person combat equipped with the Golden Weapons Pack, featuring the Golden Mace and Golden Pistol! Alongside the Golden Weapons Pack, snag the Character Pack 1 and Character Pack 2 for unique costumes and weapons. Killing never looked so good!

Bash Some Brains In!

Los Angeles has been turned into a gory, bloody mess. Survive the apocalypse in this new take on the iconic City of Angels! With various landscapes and iconic locations, immerse yourself in the apocalyptic setting of one of the best cities in the world.

Grab your bat, machete, hammer, and more, and bash some brains in. Dead Island 2's unrivalled first-person combat features visceral, gory visuals to tear, smash, slice, and rip apart your foes. Fight for your life, and fight hard.

Be the Ultimate Zombie Slayer

Take control of six Slayers and jump into HELL-A to survive the apocalypse. Build your Slayer as you wish, experiment with the game's brand-new skill system, and re-spec instantly to try out new and whackier builds. How will you choose to defeat the zombie threat?

Zombie Infestation

Survive against some of Dead Island's fiercest zombies yet with HELL-A's inhabitants. Deal with various zombie types, all of which have unique mutations, attacks, and visual variants. Use your weaponry to defeat some of the harshest zombies to date, dismember them, and turn the City of Angels into your personal playground.

A Cinematic Co-op Adventure

Survive alone or take up to three other friends and enjoy all of the twists and turns of the narrative with a partner or squad! Set out into the world and bash heads together as you embark on LA's goriest tale yet.

"Refreshingly brainless and made with a lot of heart, Dead Island 2's repetitive quest design and disappointing conclusion don't stop it from being a whale of a time."

An amazing sequal!

The graphics are top notch as is the sounD design. The dismemberment is also vEry good and quite gory. I love how the zombies chAnge physically after being injured. Combat is really gooD and feels fluid. The areas you run around In look amazing. One of the downsideS to the game is that you have to wait for the shaders lo build every time you load in. But as Luck would have it, it doesn't take as long as other games to load them (looking at you last of us part one). There is A large amount of weaponry in the game, each with its own unique move set. There are more characters to choose from this time arouNd. The perk carD system is really good aswell allowing you to perform special moves. This game may have had a long development cycle and changed devs 2, but it just seemed to make this a better game in my opinion

It's sad but i can't find any Joy in this game. The Story feels like a giant Sidequest, i dind't care about the dialogs because they're written poorly, the humor seems forced so it's almost never really funny. The Gameplay is okay...Janky sometimes but good enough but one thing really made me Angry....The Spawn system......If i just looked in another direction zombies spawned behind me eventhough i cleared the area one second ago... Lootdrops are way to many and Weapons are overpowered at times, what makes the game so easy at some points it's getting boring......i really don't like it.

I LOVE this game! Dead Island 2 is one of the best zombie games that has been released in years, it could use some work with the mechanics in the game when it comes to blocking attacks but other than that this game is well made and I believe that this game has the possibility of becoming game of the year in my personal opinion. I hope that this helps and I hope that you have a great day

Far superior than the originals

For a game that was stuck in development hell, it somehow is better than recently release triple A games. The icing on the cake is the coop. Hella fun just bashing zombies with a friend. And we cant forget about the absolutely gore fest.
