You've been asking for it, and today is the day. With two upcoming downloadable content releases and additional, exciting cosmetic updates, players can look forward to a new level of adventure in Dead Island 2. Let's dive into what awaits:

First expansion: How does a billionaire prepare for the zompocalypse? A techno-death cult with a healthy splash of debauchery and gore! The first story expansion, Haus, will release in Q4, 2023.

Second expansion: Welcome to the SOLA festival, where LA's party people can greenwash their way to ecstasy and save the planet, one rave at a time. So L.A! SOLA Festival, will launch in Q2, 2024.

DOA.


With the amount of marketing this game has gotten, you'd hope it'd be the best seller of the last 5 years.....


Too much of a gap between games; too many differences and not anywhere near enough substance.... and who wants to play "Lenny Kravitz: Zombie Hunter" any way?

I'm having fun with it just tearing zombos a new one. Sure it could have a convoluted story and all that goes with that...but sometimes simple is a good thing.
