There is finally a confirmed Dead Island 2 release date, with Dambuster Studios and Deep Silver aiming to release the long-awaited zombie game next year.<\/p>\n
Recently, at the Gamescom 2022 conference, RadioTimes.com<\/a> chatted to the developers of Dead Island 2. You can watch that video in the player above. It\u2019s totally spoiler-free and should serve as a neat intro to the game.<\/p>\n The original Dead Island launched way back in 2011 and was followed promptly in 2013 by Dead Island: Riptide. Both of those games were made by Techland, the company that has since moved onto the Dying Light franchise, which recently saw success with Dying Light 2.<\/p>\n Dambuster Studios (2021\u2019s Chorus and 2016\u2019s Homefront: The Revolution) are leading development now, and you can read on for all the key details as the Dead Island 2 release date approaches.<\/p>\n The Dead Island 2 release date is 3rd February 2023<\/strong>, the developers have confirmed, and pre-orders are available now from the likes of GAME<\/a>.<\/p>\n Here in the northern hemisphere, then, this will be something of a winter treat, with the sun-kissed apocalypse of the game offering a neat alternative to real life.<\/p> It\u2019s been confirmed that Dead Island 2 will be available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X\/S and Google Stadia, so you shouldn\u2019t be short of ways to play it! There\u2019s no sign of a Nintendo Switch release, though.<\/p>\n Yep, pre-orders are well and truly underway for Dead Island 2, so you can secure your copy now if you don\u2019t like to leave things to the last minute. Here in the UK, both GAME<\/a> and Amazon<\/a> already have Dead Island 2 listed.<\/p>\n Dead Island 2 will allow you to pick from six playable characters, before throwing you into a zombie-infested version of Los Angeles (yes, we know LA isn\u2019t an island \u2013 just go with it) for a wholly original story.<\/p>\n Each of these characters will be good at different things, but you\u2019ll also be able to tinker your character build as you go. You\u2019ll also find yourself picking up all manner of weapons, from old favourites like guns and shivs to surprising inclusions like electrified claws.<\/p> When is the Dead Island 2 release date?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
