IT’S JUST ANOTHER DAY IN HELL-A!
The bold new Dead Island 2 Showcase premiers today, updating players on content in a fun and entertaining way via an incredible live action short cinematic, which also includes an extended look at exclusive footage.
Watch on Twitch.tv/DeepSilver from 7am AEDT / 9am NZDT on Wednesday, 7th December.
The Showcase is a live-action pulp-adventure, starring three fictional characters, set in a similar universe to Dead Island 2. With the military long gone, it follows these fearless survivors in their search for a safe haven from the virus outbreak and zombie hordes. As they roam the supposedly abandoned mansion of local video game and movie producer in Los Angeles’ Hollywood Hills, they’ll soon discover that nowhere is safe.
It also features the brand new Dead Island 2 Welcome To HELL-A Trailer – join in-game characters Jacob and Amy on a picture postcard tour. Witness our unique gore tech, upgradable weapons and combat system, and of course the gruesome zombies, as the slayers show you around their stylish, sun-baked zombie-smashing playground.
All the usual tourist attractions are featured, from Beverly Hills to the shores of Santa Monica – even the Hollywood sign is ablaze – a true showcase of where paradise meets hell in Dead Island 2.
The game’s brutal combat is revealed in all its glory with slicing, kicking, stomping and burning using katanas, machetes, swords, hammers, guns and more. Dead Island 2 features the Fully Locational Evisceration System for Humanoids (F.L.E.S.H.), cutting-edge technology designed to deliver the most gruesome zombie experience ever seen in a video game. Plus, see how weapons can be improved with upgrades and add-ons, and how players can exploit their zombie infection releasing devastating powers.
Another surprise inside the showcase is a sneak peek into Alexa Game Control, which allows players to perform in-game actions using their voice, launching on Dead Island 2 on Xbox and PC, in English in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom.
Currently available to pre-order is the highly covetable Dead Island 2 Limited Edition – the HELL-A Edition is full of unique items from the game’s world to further the immersion of every Dead Island fan.
