About Dead Island 2 - Gold Edition
About this game
The Gold Edition includes the Expansion Pass. A deadly virus is spreading across Los Angeles, turning its inhabitants into zombies. Survive, evolve and become the ultimate Zombie Slayer.
Los Angeles is in quarantine and the military have retreated. Only you, and the handful of others who happen to be resistant to the pathogen, holds the future of the city (and humanity), in the balance.
Dead Island 2 is stylish, vibrant and flooded with zombie infection. Explore iconic, gore-drenched Los Angeles. Meet larger-than-life characters. Slay countless foes in exquisitely bloody detail. And evolve to become the ultimate Zombie Slayer!
FEATURES
Explore HELL-A – Dead Island 2 takes players across the most iconic locations of the City of Angels, now stained with horror, in an exciting pulp journey from the verdant suburbia of Beverly Hills to the quirky promenade of Venice Beach.
Brutal Melee Sandbox – Combat delivers the most intense, visceral and gory first person experience possible, with plenty of weapons and tactical (and brutal) options to chew your way through the zombie horde. Whether you’re slicing, smashing, burning or ripping, we want you to truly feel it.
Be the Ultimate Zombie Slayer – There are six characters to choose from, each with their own unique personality and dialogues. You can fully customize the abilities of each Slayer, with our brand-new skill system allowing you to re-spec instantly and try out the craziest builds.
Zombie Infestation – Ready to experience the most advanced dismemberment system in games? Our LA is crawling with zombies that look and react realistically. These mutated wretches are the reanimated, rotten heart of Dead Island 2 with dozens of distinct zombie types, each with their own mutations, attacks and hundreds of visual LA-themed variants. Our monsters are relentless, challenging, and true Los Angelinos. Will you be able to survive?
A Cinematic Co-op Adventure – As a proper RPG experience, Dead Island 2 offers plenty of exciting quests, a crazy cast of characters, and a thrilling pulp story, to truly immerse you in its twisted universe. Re-playability is guaranteed. Add an over-the-top co-op mode for up to three players, and you’ll stay in LA for a very long (and gory) trip.
For customers in Germany - Once zombies are defeated, players can no longer deal damage to or further dismember zombie corpses. USK players can play co-op sessions with international players through friend invites and joining friends. For public matchmaking, USK players can only play with other USK players.

Dead Island 2 is a disappointing sequel to its predecessor, with major flaws that make it hard to enjoy.
1) The game seems to be more focused on promoting racial ideology and identity politics rather than gameplay. This is evident in for example the game's unbalanced character classes, with one particular race being rendered almost useless while in comparison another is overpowered to the point of being game-breaking. This focus on promoting specific racial ideologies over gameplay balance ultimately detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game, and makes it difficult to recommend to players seeking a fair, enjoyable, non-political and balanced gaming experience.
2) The main character(s) in the game make nonsensical decisions right from the start and in every cutscene, which can be frustrating to watch. The story lacks coherence, and the player's motivation is often unclear.
3) The game has been poorly optimized for PC, it's buggy and laggy, and is simply put not fit for purpose.
The developers very obviously resorted to using a software to convert the console version into a PC game, resulting in subpar clunky gameplay mechanics on top of all the crashes that come with the game.
In summary, Dead Island 2 is a disappointing game that fails to deliver, and I cannot recommend it to anyone looking for a quality gaming experience.

First of all, if you wonder, yes it is still as good as Dead Island 1 and Riptide.
You will destroy tons of zombies with a lot of kind of weapons, but, sadly, not enough "fun"/"stupid" weapons I think, they are too close to the common stuff we see everywhere like baseball bats, hammers, axes, etc. nothing like a frying pan for example. I think it's just the same as in Riptide if I remember well (quite a long time).
Only difference is that you will play with swords and guns from start or so.
About weapons some good news : durability is increased, at last ! Now you can kill dozens of zombie with a single weapon.
Throwing weapons !!! Now they act like a skill, once unlocked you have an infinite amount of them, you just have a recharge time.
You don't need to bother crafting 50 molotovs. ANd you can have 2 equiped at the same time.
Now you know what you will get, let's go to bad sides, and there are some...
1. BUGS !!!!!
Seriously some features of the game are not even working !!! You want to repair a weapon ? You keep pressing the mouse button. Fine.
You want to upgrade the level of a weapon, same thing with F2 or whatever the key is (one of "F" key anyway) except... IT DOES NOT WORK ! The game think you just press it once and not keep pressing it. Same for recycling weapons, you cannot as the key is released by itself ! Meaning the game has not even been tested !
2. No more big areas... you will have to travel from small area to small area very often...
3. Maps are way too poor. Example: you found a locked chest, on the map it will be displayed as... "locked safe" (or whatever the name is). Problem is that there are 5/6 safe on each map with specific keys, it means that when you found a key... there is no easy way to know which safe it is...
4. "Waves" event. You think it is a good and fun thing at start but at the end it is just boring as you get way too many of them for no reason other than killing zombies (and you already does that all the day).
5. Invisible walls... Like you were playing a 1990 game... Why cannot we just jumpt over walls etc ?
6. "Exploration" quest step... This is the worse thing they could have done... You are in a zone, and must find clues... In some case you must find 10 clues without knowing what to search for... Seriously ! It's an FPS where you "kill" zombies !!! Not "Zombie Myst" !!!
So all these negative points give 3 stars max.
I still recommend the game for those who want to break and slice zombies. :-)

Just like the old dead island game with updated meme-y banter and zombie stomping.

Story isn't all that great but the fantasticly gory gameplay makes up for that. Somewhat like dying light 2 but better in my opinion.

Repetitive combat, and the game stroy is quite bad in my opinion.
Also there is a huge bug for 3 player co-op, if you don't lock your fps to 60.
The 2 players that join your server will have crazy lag and unplayable.

I really enjoyed this game, besides the map and keyboard controls. Of course, I fixed those controls so no big deal. The game looks great, I just wish I already had a gun. Looking forward to trying the multiplayer, from what I have heard the biggest problem with that is you have to be at the same place and level in the story to play together. The game doesn't level scale. So it seems like you might have to have separate characters or only play with your friends play.
I do reviews on youtube, for a better version.

It is the edited German USK version. I would never have bought them. In the store, the retailer has stated that it is the global version, which is an outright lie Caution, do not buy, the version is the German pegi version, definitely not uncut. I'll definitely never buy a Game from Fanatical again!
