Dead Island is officially available in North America today and Deep Silver has released new gameplay videos that show off the sewers, co-op gameplay, and the city streets. We've recently wrapped up our stay at Dead Island and will be posting our review shortly.
For those that want early impressions, the game isn't flawless and there is definitely of room for improvement, but zombie fans should love it and it's a lot of fun to play through. The melee combat is really well done and we never got tired of killing thousands of zombies with bats, blades, and any other weapon we could get our hands on.
Dead Island will be available for the PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3 worldwide on September 9th.
“The player is drawn into the world of Dead Island on the brink of a mysterious epidemic that suddenly, and without warning, breaks out on the fictional island of Banoi. As a guest of the Royal Palms Resort, the player’s stay was supposed to be a dream holiday, a luxurious getaway to the beautiful beaches of a tropical paradise. But faced with the reality of a zombie apocalypse, there is only one thing left to do: Survive.
This is Dead Island… a paradise to die for.”
