Dead Island 2, the zombie action-RPG announced in 2014 as well as initially prepared for launch the list below year prior to mainly going away from the general public awareness, seems back. A brand-new listing for the Deep Silver- released game has actually shown up on Amazon, consisting of brand-new screenshots as well as a since-deleted summary of the long-awaited follow up to 2011’s Dead Island.

That listing additionally kept in mind a launch day for Dead Island 2:Feb 3, 2023. (It’s worth keeping in mind that the freshly dripped listing for Dead Island 2 is different from existing listings for Dead Island 2 for PlayStation 4 as well as Xbox One, which lug a placeholderDec 31, 2022 launch day.)

According to a summary of the game, which has actually been gotten rid of from the Dead Island 2 listing, gamers will certainly have 6 personalities to pick from, each with their very own distinct character as well as discussion.

Here’s a part of the game’s upgraded tale summary:

A fatal infection is spreading out throughout Los Angeles, transforming its occupants right into ferocious zombies. The city remains in quarantine as well as the armed force have actually pulled back. Bitten, contaminated, yet greater than simply immune, you find out to harness the zombie inside. Only you, as well as the handful of various other arrogant others that need to be immune to the virus, holds the future of LA (as well as mankind) in the equilibrium. As you discover the fact behind the break out you’ll find that– or what– you are. Survive, develop, conserve the globe– simply an additional day in LA!

That seems really comparable to the arrangement for Dead Island 2 developed almost a years earlier. But because that time, the game has actually altered hands from original developer Yager to Sumo Digital to Dambuster Studios, the Deep Silver- possessed workshop that formerly took over development of Homefront: The Revolution from Crytek UK.

Deep Silver hasn’t formally introduced a brand-new launch day for Dead Island 2, yet with Gamescom 2022 as well as its Opening Night Live event turning up, the brand-new leakage appears timed to a brewing (re) expose.
