People are obsessed with zombie apocalypses. Maybe it’s the sense of adventure, the thrill of death, or the satisfaction that can only be produced by chopping a zombie’s head off. Whatever it is, the gaming market has embraced the theme and made countless titles, each with their own take on the concept. Enter Dead Island.
Dead Island is a game that was, apparently, announced four years ago. Earlier this week, the developers released a moving trailer (it’s good). The trailer alludes to an intimate storyline with all of the blood and gore we have come to expect from a zombie survival. You’re given control of one of four characters who has woken to a hangover and an island resort full of zombies. Intriguing, isn’t it? It is rumored that the game will feature sand-box game play. How long will you survive?
Watch the trailer at IGN. Dead Island is supposed to be released sometime this year for the Xbox 360 and PS3.
