Dead Island 2 announced for 2015

Deep Silver has revealed Dead Island 2, releasing for PS4, Xbox One and PC in spring 2015.

Yager is heading up development and it's being created using Unreal Engine 4.

The PS4 version of the zombie game will also come with an exclusive character class and 30-days timed-exclusive access to a beta.

"Several months after the events of Banoi, the United States military has put the Golden State under full quarantine," said Deep Silver.

"Not a restricted zone, California has become a bloody paradise for those who refuse to leave their homes and an action-packed playground for renegades who seek adventure, glory and a fresh start.

"Combining the classic Dead Island elements of immersive close combat, action, and role-playing, Dead Island 2 features crazy, never-before-seen handcrafted weapons and over-the-top characters in taking players from the iconic Golden Gate to the celebrated beachfront boardwalk of southern California's Venice Beach."
