Dead Island is an upcoming open world, horror action adventure video game in development by Techland for Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 . It is centered on the challenge of survival on a zombie-infested island with a major emphasis on melee combat.
Dead Island will feature open world gameplay, played from a first person perspective, with up to four-player co-operative play. The focus will be on melee combat, incorporating customizable weaponry and RPG elements.
There is an experience system and a skill tree system. There is also a stamina bar, meaning that after a set amount of action with a weapon, the character will need to stop to regain their stamina before continuing to attack. It has also been confirmed that there are "special class" zombies, which are more powerful than the standard enemies.
This trailer is breath-taking, such a sad story in the midst of a zombie outbreak. Can't wait to play this game.
