The annual E3 convention is known to gamers as the place where the developers like to showcase the best that they have to offer. Fans of the zombie genre got a sneak peak at Dead Island 2 during the 2014 event.

After the first outbreak on Banoi in Dead Island 1, the world has moved on. Zombies are known and everyone feels safe and prepared. Companies are selling vaccines and the latest zombie survival kits and people believe that the disaster that occurred on a small island in the middle of nowhere could never happen to them.

Suddenly, a string of brutal outbreaks occur in California and the government puts a wall around the infected area – leaving California as a Dead Island.” This new zombie California invites you to become the ultimate hero of the apocalypse to explore a dynamic, bright, and beautiful open world where you and your friends fight endless zombie hordes with your handcrafted weapons. The combat system of the game has been redone from scratch to provide a more visceral experience and control than ever before, and you will need this control to overcome all the dynamic challenges and new enemy types the game will throw at you.
