All of these gameplay features are presented in a dark story inspired by classic zombie movies with a gritty and engrossing campaign that can be played with up to 4 players in co-op mode.

Unique Setting

The tropical island of Banoi serves as the perfect backdrop for a one of a kind zombie story. White beaches, inviting pool areas and a five star luxury resort surrounded by palm trees make for a unique experience that combine the terror of a zombie outbreak with the beauty of a former paradise.

Melee Combat

It’s survival of the fittest and when the only thing you have left is your life, you take whatever you can find to defend yourself. Paddles, iron pipes or wrenches are your weapons of choice and only occasionally will you be lucky enough to actually find deadlier weapons like handguns. Even then, ammunition is limited; this is why melee combat is the focus when fighting for your life on Dead Island.

They are key to your survival, so make good use of them. Repairing and upgrading are just two of the mechanics when it comes to maintaining your inventory; with blueprints you will also be able to build new weapons that will help you make it another day through the zombie attacks on Banoi.
