Dead Island 2: Leak on Amazon reveals release date and new details

For a long time it was quiet about what was announced in 2014 Dead Island 2. Publishers DeepSilver changed the development studio twice and in the meantime there was a great fear that the zombie fun would never appear. But now there is finally a new sign of life.

Amazon has, probably by mistake, taken a new product page to the game online. For a short time she could Day 1 edition can even be pre-ordered. According to the leak, the successor to the celebrated Dead Island on February 3, 2023 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X appear.

Next to the release date and a few new ones screenshots also became a complete description released:
