Dead Island 2 Review - The Final Verdict

Whether or not Dead Island 2 is a game that justifies the long wait leading up to its release is a difficult question to answer, not least because of just how long that wait has been- but maybe it's ridiculous to even expect the game to live up to nearly a decade's worth of anticipation.

Here's what I can say though- it's an easy game to recommend. It may not necessarily offer anything we haven't seen several times before in similar releases, but what it does offer is well-made and a hell of a lot of fun. From the buckets of gore to the hack-and-slash combat to how well it brings a zombie-riddled LA to life in its own fun way, there's a lot to like about Dead Island 2.
