Dead Island 2 has had many problems in the past, and the development team had to delay it for a long time. It has also been in development for many years. However, this issue has gained the game great popularity, which has helped the developers, as one of them stated.
The Dambuster team behind Dead Island 2 is very confident in the success of their game when it releases later this year. Where he said that the problems with the last game and its delay, unexpectedly gained great popularity. The game now has a release date of April 21st on current and previous generation platforms and PC.
The studio started building the game and the city of Los Angeles where the events will take place from scratch. This meant that the beginning was difficult, as no designs were adopted from the previous part, said the game's technical director. Dan Evans He told VGC the following:
The length of time the game has been in development makes us believe that there are more new things we can do. The location of Los Angeles as the setting for the game's events is beautiful and is built from the ground up, as are the characters, tools, etc. It's an incredible opportunity.
The game was announced at E3 2014 and was set to release in a short period of time. But we never expected the game to take so long in development, as it would finally see the light of day 9 years after the incredible announcement it received.
