In a game preview, IGN highlighted the game’s ‘FLESH’ system, or ‘Fully Locational Evisceration System for Humanoids,’ which “procedurally shreds zombies with each strike” and contributes to the game’s intensely gory experience. Zombies in the game will also display variety, with Dambuster confirming the existence of “dozens of unique zombie types, each possessing their own mutations and attacks, as well as hundreds of LA-themed variants.” We crafted these characters to represent a wide range of playstyles.”

“Some characters may be more driven, energetic, or upbeat, while others might be more cynical. “Each player character has their own voice and their own dialogue,” Worrall explained. In an interview with PCGamer, the game’s creative director, James Worrall, said that even though the game doesn’t have a branching story, the six characters you can play as all have different points of view. Each character possesses distinct abilities, and players can customize their builds throughout the game. Players can choose from six different characters and immerse themselves in a unique storyline set in a zombie-infested Los Angeles (despite it not being an actual island). Players can explore an open world while killing different types of zombies, making their own resources and weapons, and going on a variety of main and side quests. Like its predecessor, Dead Island 2 is a first-person shooter with a focus on melee combat.

For those who haven’t experienced the original Dead Island, fear not there’s no need to have played it in order to fully enjoy the sequel. With only a few survivors remaining, those who haven’t fallen victim to the virus have chosen to become ‘Slayers,’ a fierce and unconventional group of zombie hunters who take pride in eliminating zombies in the most stylish ways possible. Set a decade after the events in Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide, Dead Island 2 transports players to a post-apocalyptic, zombie-ridden California, now dubbed ‘Hell-A,’ which has been quarantined by the US government.
