When it comes to combat, IGN said that the game “encourages constant movement, with dodges, kicks, and jumps all integral parts” and that while there is a stamina system, it’s not punishingly restrictive, allowing you to “experiment with a variety of different techniques”.ĭuring an interview with GameInformer (opens in new tab), it was revealed that Dead Island 2's skill tree will be based on a card deck-building system. We caught a glimpse of that ourselves in the trailer. In a preview of the game, IGN touched on the game's ‘FLESH’ system, or 'Fully Locational Evisceration System for Humanoids', which “procedurally shreds zombies with each strike” and makes the game a truly gory experience. We've written those characters to reflect broad playstyles."Īs for the zombies, there’ll be variety there, too, with Dambuster confirming there'll be “dozens of distinct zombie types, each with their own mutations, attacks and hundreds of LA-themed variants”. Some characters are quite low key, subtle. You might get another character who's a little bit more of a cynical individual. "So you might get one character who's particularly driven or energised or upbeat. "Each player character has their own voice and their own dialogue," he said. In an interview with PCGamer, creative director James Worrall revealed that while the game doesn’t have a branching narrative, the six player characters offer different perspectives. It looks like a useful tool, one that allows you to tear through hordes of zombies with ease. It comes from the zombie bite on your character's arm, and allows them to enter a state where they become momentarily zombified. An antihero with rockstar flair, Jacob’s offbeat. Not much else is known about him but he became trapped in Los Angeles, California during the outbreak. After this, he followed his dream and became a stuntman prior to travelling to the US. He was born in London and originally became a stockbroker before the passing of his mother. One interesting mechanic that has been shown off in gameplay trailers is the frenzy ability. Jacob is one of the six slayers featured in Dead Island 2. There are guns in the game too, and so far we've seen pistols, shotguns and assault rifles/SMGs. Melee combat was highlighted, featuring hammers, blades, and DIY-modded gear. In a recent showcase, a few minutes of new gameplay footage was shown off.
Now that Dead Island 2 has been given what seems to be a final release date, we're starting to see more and more gameplay.
