They make sure and say this at least once a year and it's weird. Dead Island was in development hell for 7 years; I guess they just want to create the same magic for this one. If it ever actually comes out I'll still play it eventually. Dying Light is essentially Dead Island 2 already but I'll take any zombie killing game someone puts in front of me.

That game is a little too late. I mean, I'm sure people will still buy it but the bankability of its name is a little suspect these days, especially when the original devs went on to make a much better spiritual successor that's getting its own sequel here shortly.

Especially because dead island was so flawed even in the context of the times

Well Dying Light 2 has at least been shown

It's certainly coming before Dead Island 2

They've got a handful of solid stuff they've put up. They're not a AAA publisher by any stretch but they've got a ton of B games. The past couple years they've been buying up every little studio and IP they can get their hands on. Assuming they're not just racing towards collapse they could be a fucking juggernaut in the future. I'm super excited to see what they do.

For some reason I thought that game came out. I remember seeing gameplay footage what feels like years ago.

I liked the first one, it felt like a first-person beat-em-up. Had some cool levels too, like that jungle under the freeway one

Wait, which trailer? The one that fooled everybody into thinking Dead Island was a totally different game tonally than it actually was, or Dead Island 2's trailer?

That whole trailer "controversy" with the first game was so dumb. How many hundreds of games have dramatic trailers that aren't indicative of the game? Just look at every Gears of War trailer ever. All of them are super dark, dramatic, and depressing and have nothing to do with chainsawing molemen in half with a gun. It felt so weird that people dogpiled on Dead Island so hard and that that is it's legacy more than the game itself.

There is Riptide, which is like a sequel to Dead Island but... not? It continues the story and expanded on the co-op component and added some special danger zones. It's about as shit as the first game though.

I only enjoyed the first game because I played it with my friend and we got to experience all the weird ass glitches together. But as a single player game it is a heavy slog.

I don't know why they would bother making 2 to be honest.
