In a recent update posted on Twitter, Dambuster Studios spoke about the future of Dead Island 2, the top-tier zombie slasher that was released in 2023 after more than ten years in development hell. It has been one year since the game was released, and by all accounts, Dambuster is far from finished with the open-world, post-apocalyptic epic.
Dedicated to the Undead
In the message posted on Twitter to the community, Dambuster wrote:
We have had well over 7 million players enter Hell-A and a brain-melting 24 billion zombies slayed! We were also truly honoured to be nominated for Best Action Game at The Game Awards last year, and more recently for Best British Game at the esteemed BAFTAs.
Recently, Dambuster Studios released SoLA, Dead Island 2’s second expansion that introduced gnarly new zombie archetypes and a new playable area, amongst other things. Since being released in 2023, Dead Island 2 has effortlessly established itself as one of the best open-world zombie titles on the market, fusing gory combat with an entertaining story and sumptuous visuals.
In the message posted online, Dambuster assured fans that this isn’t the end:
