Dead Island™ Riptide

Over four million players around the world survived the ordeals of the zombie infestation on the once beautiful island resort of Banoi, and our group of survivors thought they had finally found a safe place to escape from this terrifying nightmare. They were wrong. Shortly after the battle-hardened team had landed their helicopter on a military ship, a furious storm hits and havoc quickly spreads on board. Suddenly, they find themselves struggling for their lives again in new, terrifying scenarios with all hope drowning in the rising waves…

Dead Island Riptide draws you back into a tropical nightmare with invigorating new elements infused into its proven recipe for fun:

• Innovative Gameplay: Drawing from popular styles of strategic combat gives fans the ultimate zombie-fighting experience. New hub defense missions mean the co-op teamwork skills of the survivors will be tested to the limit. Strategically place traps, fences and turrets to fend off oncoming Zombie onslaughts, protect the survivors in these sanctuaries and above all, make it out alive.
• Raised Level Cap & Save Game Imports: Players can either start a character from scratch, or import their save games from the original Dead Island and continue developing their character with all new skills to choose from and a raised level cap.
• New Playable Character Class: A fifth character choice, John Morgan, will join the team with a unique martial arts skillset, inspired by popular Dead Island fan-produced game mods.
• New Locations & Drivable Vehicles: A monsoon has hit the once beautiful archipelago and heavy rainstorms have laid waste to large areas of the islands. The city of Henderson and jungle areas on the island of Palanai succumbed to devastating rain, leaving boats as the only remaining way of transportation to certain places. It’s sink or swim.
• Chilling Zombie Mutations: The combined skills of the group will be sorely needed, since terrible, new and unknown zombie mutations have emerged all over the island.
• Enhanced Character Development: Each character’s weapon proficiency will increase with continued usage of a particular weapon type, adding more flexibility to the player’s choice of combat style.
