Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great game- 4.5 out of 5! The graphics are great, weapon mods, etc. etc. That's not what makes it exceptional, however. The thing that puts this one ahead of the pack, is its re-playability. There are tons of missions- the game starts you off pretty stingy on weapons, though. But, "All good things come to those who wait." Eventually, you're a juggernaut taking on mixed hordes with an arsenal of impressive (and rare) weapons. On your second trip through the quest- you will cruise. But you feel as though you've earned your improved fortunes. My only gripe are the default controls. You acclimate to them soon enough, if you played the first one.

Overall a good game. The main campaign is quick and not too easy.

Great Graphics, realistic gore. exciting and fun gameplay.

I didn't get the chance to play the first game so I won't be able to compare the two or say about the improvements since the first. The story was mediocre and some of the NPCs were kinda annoying and have no personality, so there was no reason to care for them at all. The loots were great and kept me coming back to look for more but it was very frustrating when your items disappear from time to time. I didn't like the checkpoint save system cause it's an RPG you should be able to save whenever you want and whenever you quit then come back to play again you'll be respawned at the place where you took the main quest, very annoying. I liked the coop system, it was smooth and fun playing with friends and strangers. The game was kinda easy with no real challenge at all and every time you die you'll respawn at a near location and the only penalty is cash, and the exploits in the continuous quests made the game really easy also since you can buy it. Bosses were too easy in Dead Zones you can just throw molotovs/grenade or shoot them at a distance and they won't attack you. The AIs were useless during defending points and you'll have to do all the heavy lifting 90% at a time. The main point of this game is killing zombies and they achieved it. I enjoyed the game but there was some bugs and some glitches along the way that hinders the experience but overall it was a great game. 7.8/10

If you liked the first Dead Island, you will like this game. Gameplay is much the same, and that's not a bad thing. I have encountered a few new zombies, like the floater. Best zombie series on the market.

A lot of people seem to either love the DI series or hate it. You either enjoy certain aspects of it like trying to remain undetected and modifying your weapons, or you are upset that its not a game where you go around lobbing an unlimited supply of bombs to take out 100 zombies every 3 seconds. I am in the former category. I will say that DI has had its share of glitches can be infuriating, but DI:R seemed to address them pretty well.

This Game was very good at keeping me excited and entertained, very satisfied with my purchase. Online Gameplay is also very fun.

We liked the game, seemed easier than the first one, although the end was very hard. All in all, still a great game.

Great zombie game to play in your free time. I would recommend to a friend

Teenager liked it alot. Something comparable to the lastest games

If you enjoyed the first Dead Island, you will enjoy Riptide. Still the "go here and get me this" quest set up, which isn't bad, but does get a little repetitive. You can transfer over your original Dead Island character which I thought was pretty cool; so much like a second play through on the original but in a new world. And of course, the zombies will be on par with what ever your imported character's level is, so be warned. Graphics aren't the best at times, like when there's a ton of zombies around; but again, if you've played the first one, you'll be used to that as well. About like any other, or most other sequels, much like the original, but different. And for $10.00, you about can't go wrong. Oh, and the online multiplayer story mode with your friends is still super fun too.

Gameplay was amazing!!!! The whole concept of this island being infected is just amazing!!! The more I played the more I got drawn into the story and the characters!!! Can't wait for number three to come out!!!!!

I have played a lot of zombie killing games and use to the resident type evil games where you blast the $$#$ out of everything. I never thought hacking them too pieces would be just as fun. its a great game, but the picture does take a while to catch up to the game. Also 10 dollars cheaper than other games at release was a steal.

has great gory graphics and walkers run up on you out of nowhere so you must play with the sound on. on the negative side; the game's main story line was very easy to beat and took no time at all.

Great for blowing a bit of steam off. Nice new weapons for taking care of thugs and a few nice UI changes make the game play better.

Overall the game is fun especially with others.. tory is average and so is the graphics, tho the gameplay makes up for it with weapon upgrades and hard co-op zombie bashing fun..

Great game overall. If you love killing zombies, you'll love dead island. It's fairly challenging and great for multiple players. This one is very similar to the first, but the updates are nice. Having missions from the survivors on your team is a new facet that I'm only beginning to appreciate. The same throwing weapons glitch appears in this game. So far, the private and public slots are glitched. My friend and I were placed in someone else's game where many missions past where I was at had been completed. This caused a glitch that made the missions complete for me without getting the rewards. Also made some quest items glitchy.

I bought this for my son for Christmas, it's the one he asked for! He Loves it! I would not recommend for a young child. There is language, gore and "adult conversations/actions". He's happy, so I'm happy.

Retains gameplay for original but loses it's immersion with a poor story and repetitive missions. Cooperative play is a lot of fun with hub defense being a highlight.

Love this game hours of fun for everyone try it you will love it.
