Dambuster Studios’ second paid expansion for Dead Island 2, SoLA, is available now on Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC. It takes place in a music festival called, shockingly, SoLA, but while the vibes are immaculate, the Beat of the Autophage invites something more terrifying from “beyond”. Check out some of its horrors below.
The Slayers must thus stop the beat, slaying tons of the undead in the process. New Apex Zombies like the Whipper and Clotter emerge, the former self-mutilating itself to the point of becoming entangled in intestines, which grant it further reach. Meanwhile, the latter can decompose and recompose seamlessly to gain damage immunity.
Fortunately, there are some new weapons to help out. The Ripper combines a baseball bat and circular saw into a winning combo that can blitz through undead heads. Meanwhile, the Sawblade Launcher provides a powerful ranged option, piercing and decapitating through several targets at once.
Dead Island 2: SoLA retails for $14.99 and is included with the $29.99 Expansion Pass. For more details on the base game, check out our review.
