Dead Island 2 has received a new trailer introducing the last of the six playable characters. The series of videos released by the development team is part of its promotional campaign, preparing for its release on home platforms next April.
The sixth hero is the con artist Bruno, who is skilled at carrying out high-risk heists before turning to killing the undead full-time. Unlike some of his allies, he is more agile and prefers stabbing zombies in the back rather than confronting them in Dead Island 2.
Bruno's abilities range from Backstab, which provides a medium damage boost when attacking zombies from behind. Rapid Reprisal also increases his agility and costs a heavy attack when blocking or parrying attacks. His strategy is to avoid damage and deliver a powerful backstab for maximum damage.
Dambuster Studios and publisher Deep Silver have announced that Dead Island 2's release date will come a week earlier than planned, as it will be released on April 21st instead of April 28th.
This completes the six playable characters. We'll remind you that we previously saw many impressions of the game's early experiences, as many described it as preserving the original. It also borrowed some elements from Dying Light, which shares many of the same elements.
We remind you that the game will be released for current and last generation platforms and for PC on April 21st.
