I am very excited to see what the game will offer us coming this year’s E3. If you need to catch up on all things Dead Island, you can view all our coverage on the game so far by clicking HERE. – Square Enix will distribute the game in North America. – The game will have a damage system on the zombies. The Suicider, the Butcher, the Ram, and the Drowner have all been confirmed so far. – There will be a variety of zombies in the game. – There will be no child zombies due to the ESRB rating system. – The game boasts 2,000 weapons creation. – There will be no daytime/night time changes. – Flashlights will be used on dark areas to add suspense.

With a focus on melee combat, the game will feature a skill tree system as well as an experience system. Additionally, there will be a ‘stamina bar’, which means our character won’t be able to attack continually without tiring themselves out so they need to stop for a bit and recharge this stamina bar. These features, combined with weapon customizations, vehicular combat, and some RPG elements, sounds very intense and exciting. There are four characters that we are able to choose from, the hotel staff member Xian Mei, Logan a surfer, a former rapper Sam B and unknown character named Purna.ĭead Island will have open world gameplay with first-person viewpoint, with up to four-player co-operative play online.

The game is set in a resort located in Papua New Guinea, where our heroes wakes up after partying all night only to find the whole island infested by flesh eating zombies. Welcome to Dead Island.ĭead Island went from a game nobody knew about to a game everyone is raving about after Deep Silver unleashed the announcement trailer (which kind reminds me personally of ‘Lost’) that truly delivers all the goods from a zombie apocalypse game. As E3 2011 draws near, it’s time again for another entry in our countdown to E3 2011.
