There are never enough zombies in the world, and Dead Island is set to to throw even more of those shuffling bastards at us.

Set on an open world tropical island all hell breaks loose when a mysterious zombie outbreak occurs requiring you to get your zombie slaying game on.
Dead Island has a heavy emphasis on mellee but is also going to feature RPG elements that let you customise your character to your own playstyle and learn new tricks along the way.
Firearms do exist in Dead Islands world but ammo is scarce. Thankfully you can also customise a “vast array” of weapons to help you survive.

“All of these gameplay features are presented in a dark story inspired by classic zombie movies with a gritty and engrossing campaign that can be played with up to four players in co-op mode.”

Dead Island will be released later this year, and if this hauntingly beatiful trailer is anything to go by we could be looking at something rather special.
