Dead Island 2 has been a visual delight. It’s been a while since I’ve had so much fun smashing and slashing zombies. Might have been as long as it was back when Dead Rising 2 came out. The detail in gore effects is remarkable. You can snipe legs and knee caps from afar or dance up close and get personal.
This game has the player seeing holes form from gun shots or seeing layers of carnage from slashing weapons. The detail has been upped from all previous games; a new standard has been set.

If your into hack and slash with plenty of zombies this is the game for you. There is some shooting aspects but more for hack an slash with weapon mods. Looks amazing on series X.

It was a great game, obviously the story isnt anything to write home about, but really, its a zombie that should never be taken seriously
Can't wait to see what dlc is coming later for its cycle

This game is amazing. It’s so much fun! There’s no lagging or anything. There are so many cool weapons and chances to upgrade weapons that aren’t as cool. I love it.

Waited 10 years for this game and let me tell you it is better than what I thought it would be after the development hell it was in. The game is far more linear than Dead Island 1 but I think it compliments the game well and makes it stand out in a sea of open world games nowadays. The gore in this game is also just next level. If you are wanting a fun zombie slasher game then pick it up!
