Head to HELL-A in the Dead Island 2 Launch Trailer

After years of waiting, Dead Island 2 is just around the corner, and Deep Silver has released a final launch trailer to get players ready.

Four days. That’s how much longer you have to wait to FINALLY play the long-delayed Dead Island sequel. To get players ready for the action, the developers have revealed a launch trailer for the title, letting you know that it’s for real happening:

The long-awaited next entry in the Dead Island franchise, Dead Island 2 places players in the shoes of one of six bombastic survivors – Amy, Bruno, Dani, Ryan, Carla, and Jacob. After finding out that you’re immune to the zombie virus the hard way, humanity’s future is in your hands. Aided by newfound friends, including the original Dead Island’s Sam B., players must escape from HELL-A before the rest of the world succumbs to the undead plague.

Standing in your way are the undead hordes of Angelinos, as varied as they once were in life. Slaughter reanimated muscle-beach hunks, fashionable celebrities, and beach bums alike in gruesome style with a variety of weapons. Whether you’re slashing them up with knives, chopping them with an electrified axe, or turning them into swiss cheese with an assault rifle, Dead Island 2’s blood-drenched action is a gory spectacle to behold.

With different environmental effects to experiment with and your own strange abilities as an infected yet seemingly immune zombie virus survivor, there are ample ways to take out the undead. As long as there’s a trail of gore behind you, there isn’t a wrong way to mow down the hordes.

Dead Island 2 hits PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Consoles, and PCs on April 21, 2023.
