Thanks to a six-week delay, Respawn's title is now landing on Ap– the same day that Dead Island 2 was set to launch. Of course, Dambuster could be artfully avoiding a clash with Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Releasing one week earlier than planned is testament to that confidence. For a game that could’ve been quietly cancelled about ten times within the last nine years, with barely anyone batting an eyelid, they’ve stuck with it and it's finally gone gold. The good news is, the team at Dambuster seems confident with their final product. With Capcom's Dead Rising 5 dead and buried, we desperately need someone else to shuffle into the void it left behind, and hopefully Dead Island 2 is up to the task. That being said, I was won over by the Dead Island 2 which saw a tonal shift from sombre to self-aware goofiness. I learned my lesson though – never trust a trailer that doesn't show actual gameplay. I, like many others, fell for the first Dead Island's poignant CGI debut trailer but the game itself felt like a mediocre Dead Rising knockoff. Luckily, the devs are up for poking fun at Dead Island 2's troubled development Dambuster posted the new date announcement on its twitter account, with a trailer that showed off some comments on social media like “who wants to beat they delay it again” and “how many more times will y’all delay this game”. There was very little shown up until the game’s re-reveal at Gamescom Opening Night Live in 2022. It was announced at E3 2014 with a phenomenal trailer, then the game went quiet for years as it switched hands across different developers twice. The sequel to 2011’s Dead Island has had a rough time. So mark your calendars, folks! The new Dead Island 2 release date is Apon both last-gen and current-gen PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and PC. That’s right, the game's developer: Dambuster Studios has just announced that, not only has Dead Island 2 gone gold, but that it'll be launching one week earlier than anticipated. Once again the date has been changed… to a week earlier! Since its original reveal in 2014, Dead Island 2 has been delayed… A lot.
