Dead Island 2 February 3rd 2023

Post by Lenny Solidus » Thu Aug 18, 2022 10:56 am

Look what good old Amazon leaked......
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
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.

There are 6 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.

Our LA is crawling with zombies that look & 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 & hundreds of LA-themed variants.

Day 1 Edition includes the Memories of Banoi Pack – Banoi War Club, Memories of Banoi Baseball Bat, Weapon Perk – balanced, Personal space skill card

I will believe it when it happens, that game has had a cursed development arc.

Loved the first one though, zombie melee with masses of jank, it was great fun. A real co-op gem...

When was that first announced, about 200 years ago? Enjoyed the first up to a point but it was a bit janky. I'll have a look at this once it's on sale.

Can't think of one

I'm pretty I pre-ordered this six years ago on cd keys :lol: Out of curiosity did anyone here play Dying Light 2? I loved the first one but I'm waiting for the price to drop and for the majority of the bugs and glitches to be fixed

Make that three!

Actually, not sure how I missed it but this is being developed by Dambuster Studios who also made Homefront: The Revolution, a game I really enjoyed. I even recall recommending it to a few people back on PW Sly included, no idea if he ever picked it up. If the studio can pull off anything to close to what they did on that game then I'm all in feet first. Infected feet that buckle and tear clean off.

Not much of an island is it?

Looks like it could be a lot of fun. I had a great time with both Dead Island and Riptide in co-op and hopefully will do the same with this one. Doesn't look like it is coming to Gamepass, anyone interested in picking it up? I will probably wait until it is on sale (CD Keys has it at £50 so no sneaky cheap pre-purchases there).

Yeah, it looks like a laugh. It's a little annoying that it only supports three people in co-op though. I suspect I might pick it up, but not until it comes down in price a bit.

One for a deep sale for me, it looks fun but I have so much to play most the time.

What an odd choice to make.
