WTMG’s Leo Faria: “I ended up enjoying this particular preview build of Dead Island 2. It didnt bother me with its open world design, despite being released during a time where said level structure isnt impressive anymore. Its story is indeed interesting, its setting is amazing (a zombie-ridden California? Sign me in!), its performance was stunning. Its just the weak combat and overly Buzzfeed-y vibe that bothered me, with the latter simply not mixing well with an apocalyptic setting. I am still looking forward to play the final release, slated for April 21st, 2023. I cant believe that the damn thing is finally seeing the light of day.”
