Dambuster Studios’ Dead Island 2 is out today after a long development period. While it remains to be seen if the sales are worth it, the zombie hack-and-slash title has received some decent critical praise. Check out the latest trailer below, which highlights positive responses from critics.
As a Slayer in Los Angeles, aptly called HELL-A after the latest outbreak, players must slay the hordes of the undead to stand a chance of survival. The FLESH System allows for hacking zombies apart in a realistic, procedural fashion. Despite being a linear experience, Dead Island 2 still offers about 20 hours of gameplay when focusing on the story and doing some side content.
It’s available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. You can check out our official review for more details. In terms of post-launch support, there will be expansions, though Dambuster and Deep Silver haven’t provided any details on their release dates. Stay tuned in the meantime.
