Still, there’s a relentless optimism running through Dead Island 2 that makes it far less exhausting and much sillier than some of its zombie-slaying stablemates. Brawling through mansions in Bel Air looking for loot like a violence-addicted truffle pig feels immediately natural, no doubt thanks to the several parkour and zombies titles that are currently on the market. Soon after you get bitten while fighting the game’s zombies for the first time and, eager to avoid your eventual transformation into a zombie, you venture to the home of a celebrity you rescued in the moments after the plane crash.ĭead Island 2 starts strong.

The city of angels, now dubbed Hell-A for reasons I don’t understand but hate, is no longer the place to be.

It’s that, or get added to the growing horde of undead that is now chewing through the city. Los Angeles is fucked (zombies, what can you do) and everyone who is anyone is desperately trying to get to the evacuation planes.
