In a statement to Kotaku, Dead Island publisher Deep Silver has apologised for the wrong version of the game being uploaded to Steam. The correct, patched version will be available as soon as possible. Check out the full statement here.
I think we were all a bit shocked when Techland told Kotaku earlier this year that the family so poignantly represented in the award-winning trailer for Dead Island wouldn’t actually be in the game.
Last night before I hit the sack I set up a download of the Steam version of Techland’s Dead Island. This morning I woke up to what many others discovered last night -— this doesn’t seem to be the right version of the game.
With a musical cue taken from the heartbreaking trailer that started all of this Dead Island excitement in the first place, here’s the final trailer for Techland’s tropical zombie apocalypse, hitting stores next week.
“We hang together, or we f**ked.” Truer words have never been spoken, in or out of a co-op trailer for Dead Island.
