Deep Silver heeft laten weten dat Dead Island 2 verplaats is naar 2016.
“We have always set ourselves a big goal for Dead Island 2: to create the sequel that takes Dead Island to the next level,” aldus Deep Silver. “We have been looking at the game long and hard, and we have decided we didn’t reach that goal we set out to achieve quite yet. This is why we have decided to delay Dead Island 2 to 2016.”
Meer tijd voor de ontwikkeling lijkt dus de grootste reden voor de vertraging. “We know that our fans will be disappointed by this news, but by giving Dead Island 2 more time we are confident that everyone will get a better game to play as a result,” Deep Silver wrote.
Deep Silver heeft er de laatste tijd een handje van om games te vertragen, kijk naar Mighty No. 9 enHomefront: The Revolution , en van Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell hebben ze alleen de datum gewoon even verschoven.
