It’s a great time to start playing Dead Island 2, thanks to the arrival of the Ultimate Edition. The new version of the PC and console title offers players a screaming good deal for zombie slaying throughout Los Angeles, or “Hell-A” as it’s now known. It bundles the base game and all four DLC into one big package at a sweet price of $45.49. The price won’t last long as it’s 30% off for the coming few days. The base game by itself is also 30% off and can be purchased for $34.99.
The game puts players in the bloody shoes of one of six “bombastic survivors.” These include Amy, Bruno, Dani, Ryan, Carla, and Jacob. Each one finds that they are immune to the zombie virus, and now humanity’s future is in their hands. As players travel the landscape, they’ll have to fight through hordes of zombies and collect a few friends along the way. The goal is to escape “Hell-A” before the rest of the world is infected by the zombie plague.
Players will have access to different environmental effects to experiment with alongside their own odd abilities. There are multiple ways to take out zombies, whether crushing them under a falling wall, shooting them in half, or blowing them up into tiny chunks. Leave a trail of gore behind, and it’s been a successful hunt.
In addition to the announcement of the Ultimate Edition, Dambuster Studios also revealed that over 10 million zombie slayers have sliced and diced their way through Hell-A.
“Whether you’re chopping heads, firing up traps, or blowing things up with electric grenade launchers, YOU made this happen. We can’t wait to see how you keep turning up the heat and leveling up the chaos! Big thanks to all our Slayers across the globe!”
