It's like a time capsule that was buried back when this style of game could just be fun instead of serious.ĭead Island 2 is broken up into a multitude of areas that can be considered large "levels" that make the game feel like more of an open world, but each neighborhood or area is its own location that you can only move between at certain points.

Despite four different developers being attached to the title over what must amount to at least a decade of development, Dead Island 2 manages to bring a bit of fresh air to the incredibly well-trod genre of zombie-killing. I'm not sure which fact makes me feel older - the original Dead Island coming out back in 2011 or it has been eight full years since the sequel was originally supposed to be released.
