And if we finally caught a glimpse of the arrival of Dead Island 2 ? Rumor peddled by Tom Henderson and others is that the game will be reannounced in due form in 2022, he who had been formalized in 2014, but whose development complications led him to be transferred from Yager Interactive at Sumo Digital then at Dambuster Studios.
Well, imagine that as for New Tales from the Borderlands yesterday, Amazon.com has just unveiled the product page before its (re)revelation, allowing us to appreciate the official cover, images and synopsis. Dead Island 2 will take us well to Los Angeles to play as one of the 6 Pathogen Resistant Zombie Exterminatorsin order to kill mutants en masse and develop our hero way Action RPG. No cooperative or multiplayer mode is yet mentioned in the summary, but it may be announced during the formalization.
A deadly virus is spreading through Los Angeles, California, turning its residents into hungry zombies. The city is under quarantine and the military has withdrawn. Bitten, infected, but more than immune, you learn to exploit the zombie within. Only you, and the handful of other swaggering comrades who happen to be resistant to the pathogen, hold the future of Los Angeles (and humanity) in the balance. By uncovering the truth behind the epidemic, you will find out who or what you are. Survive, evolve, save the world – just another day in LA!
The beloved zombie saga returns with a unique formula of horror, dark humor and zombie slaying, wrapped around an epic adventure. Dead Island 2 is a thrilling first-person action-RPG that takes players to a whole new playground. Sleek, vibrant, and overwhelmed with zombification, explore an iconic, gory Los Angeles. Meet larger than life characters. Kill countless enemies in extremely bloody detail. And evolve to become the ultimate Zombie Slayer. See you at HELL-A!
Main characteristics
- Dead Island 2 takes players through the most iconic locations of the now horror-stained City of Angels on a thrilling journey from the leafy suburbs of Beverly Hills to the eccentric boardwalk of Venice Beach.
- Combat offers the most intense, visceral, and bloody first-person experience possible, with plenty of weaponry and tactical (and brutal) options to fight your way through the zombie horde.

Amazon.com even already listing a release date for February 3, 2023 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. An edition DayOne will add the pack as a bonus Memories of Banoi (Banoi War Club, Memories of Banoi Baseball Bat, Weapon Perk), a priori for all pre-orders.
