Originally announced back in 2014, Dead Island 2 has been stuck in somewhat of a development hell, so to speak. When the game was first announced it was being developed by YAGER (Spec Ops: The Line) and the tone of the game seemed to have shifted from the original completely. It looked almost like a third person Dead Rising with some comedy worked into the zombie slaying. Who can forget that awesome CGI trailer?
