Lastly, after getting bitten by a zombie in Dead Island 2, players will be able to fight fire with fire by tapping into their character's corrupted DNA thanks to Fury Mode. On top of these environmental features, players can craft items called Curveballs that can be used strategically in the heat of battle, with one example, Meat Bait, being thrown in a direction to draw zombies away from the player, allowing time to escape or focus on a smaller-sized group instead of taking on a full horde. Although Dead Island 2's homage to Hollywood B-movies will see the return of special zombie types from its predecessors, such as the extremely strong Thugs, or the explosive Suiciders, this stronger outbreak will be represented by an all-new, more powerful zombie type with special abilities: the Apex.įurther items found in the open world, such as car batteries, can also be chained with attacks to create environmental damage, or create the aforementioned traps. In Dead Island 2, the United States government and US military are forced to turn California into a fully restricted quarantine zone due to a " new and stronger" zombie outbreak. Not much has been revealed about the title's story, but it has been confirmed that it will take place mere months after the events of Dead Island and Dead Island: Riptide. Unlike Dead Island: Riptide, which saw players able to carry over their character and XP levels from the first game, or pick one additional new character instead, Dead Island 2's cast will consist of entirely new characters - Amy, Jacob, Dani, Ryan, Carla, and Bruno - who each have their own unique personality, dialogue, and abilities that reflect their specific backstory which include past careers as athletes, stuntmen, motorcycle club members, and more. There are six playable characters for players to choose from in Dead Island 2, which is a step up from the original Dead Island's four protagonists, and Dead Island: Riptide's five.
