The Dead Island Game of the Year Edition, due out June 26 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, combines the game, both bouts of downloadable content and the blueprint for the Ripper weapon mod in one $US29.99 package.
Now that we’ve experienced the horrors of Banoi island through the eyes of Dead Island‘s four protagonists, it’s time to get a little antagonistic. Villain Ryder White steals the spotlight in the next instalment of Dead Island downloadable content.
It doesn’t get any more official than an announcement from Lionsgate motion picture group president Joe Drake; there will be a Dead Island movie, and it sounds like it will be the first major motion picture based on a video game trailer.
Buggy, but fun hack-and-slash zombie role-playing game Dead Island/ shipped more than a million copies to stores in the first few days of release and expects to send out two million globally by the end of week, the publishers say. Of course, these aren’t sold to gamers numbers, but it is still pretty impressive.
Love it for its body parts, looting, insanity and amazing settings, hate it for its ludicrous bugs and iffy graphics, either way you owe it to yourself to at least check Dead Island out.
