Dead Island 2 is an upcoming action role-playing game developed by Dambuster Studios and published by Deep Silver. It is the third major entry in the Dead Island series and a follow-up to the video game Dead Island from 2011. Dead Island 2 distinguishes itself from its predecessors by taking place in the city of Los Angeles, which has been quarantined due to the zombie outbreak, and is set about 10 years after the events of Dead Island and Dead Island: Riptide. The game is scheduled to be released for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, and PC on April 21, 2023.
The game was first announced in 2014 and has had a challenging development cycle due to the development studio getting changed multiple times. Dead Island 2 was initially contracted to be developed by Yager in 2012. However, Sumo Digital took over the project in 2016. In 2019, development was handed over to Dambuster, an internal studio of Deep Silver.
