‘Dead Island 2’ Release Date, Gameplay, News & Update: Zombies To Invade Mobile Scene Soon; More Details Here!

It has been months since Sumo Digital acquired the rights to continue the development of the "Dead Island" franchise from Yager Development. No news has been announced since then so naturally a lot of gamers thought that the zombies on "Dead Island" had been destroyed, but now, they have a new target and are ready to terrorize the mainland. The zombies will soon be given a second chance in "Dead Island 2" and they're going to be closer to you than you think.

Klemens Kundratitz, CEO of Koch, explained that a couple of projects are brewing under the "Dead Island" franchise. He shared that they are actually working on a mobile game and will be announcing more about it soon. "Dead Island 2" according to him is already a sure project and a lot of improvements are being made to the game at Sumo Digital. "We're looking forward to showing off the game to our fans when it is ready." he said during his speech in MCV. "The franchise has our full attention" he added.

"Dead Island" is a horror-survival role playing game that was first released in 2011 by Techland. The first installment received positive reviews. An expansion pack was released in 2013 named "Dead Island: Riptide" and a spin-off, "Escape Dead Island" was introduced in November 2014. According to reports "Dead Island 2" is the planned title of the sequel to the original game released in 2011. The story line for "Dead Island 2" started a few months after the events in "Escape Dead Island."

In the game, a new zombie outbreak started in California and goes as far as San Francisco and Los Angeles. In "Dead Island 2" the US Army had to fully quarantine the entire state to prevent the spread of infection, thus making it a gory battle ground for the survivors and the undead.

During the 2014 Gamescon, Deep Silver showed a footage of the game's early version. It was explained that there will be four available characters and there will be a maximum of eight players for the multi-player mode. No official release date has been set for "Dead Island 2".
