Published by Dear Villagers, the game is out now on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam (which has a 10% launch discount) and the Epic Games Store, and the launch is accompanied by a new trailer.

The day’s finally arrived for developer Fallen Leaf and their psychological sci-fi thriller Fort Solis. Regardless, the last thing that anyone’s heard of its development, is that Dead Island 2 is being developed for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Many of us probably feel like that user at this point, though Koch Media has stated that they still very much have plans for the game (despite the original game turning a decade old next year). We're not quite ready to talk about the latest Dead Island just yet, but when we do, you'll see it here!

The publisher followed up with another Tweet saying that while they aren’t quite yet ready to announce anything regarding Dead Island 2, but when they do eventually say something, it’ll be through Twitter. The user, still not convinced, pressed Deep Silver. After being rebuffed by another user saying that the game was dead, and that they should move on to Dying Light, Deep Silver responded in kind:

The latest volley comes from Twitter, where after sending out a tweet regarding Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell being part of Xbox Games With Gold this month, one fan chimed in to ask about Dead Island 2. After numerous developers, several quotes from Deep Silver’s parent company Koch Media saying that the game is still very much alive, and even a leaked 2015 build of the game, Deep Silver is still at it.
