That is also just one month before publisher Deep Silver decided to switch developers around three years after work first started. We'll have to wait patiently for a glimpse at the real thing, provided it's actually still being worked on.A playable build of the troubled Dead Island 2 has leaked online, the alleged work of the Berlin-based studio Yager Development.Īs reported by Eurogamer, a version of Dead Island 2 was uploaded to 4Chan - a playable build of the game dated June 2015, one year after it was first announced at E3. If it does still end up coming out, it might even look totally different from this build. No matter the reason, it's cool to take a look back at a game that was in development from five years ago to see what it was shaping up to be. Perhaps changing developers left it unable to continue at the same clip, and the game has been undergoing radical alterations. It's too early to say anything like "the game has been canceled," but it definitely seems to have been forced to the sidelines. It's certainly an interesting specimen, however, especially given the build we're seeing people experimenting with. THQ Nordic teased information about the game in 2019, but it's now mid-2020 and we've heard basically nothing. Apparently it switched from YAGER's development over to Dambuster Studios.
The game appears to have entered development hell, however, unfortunately. Twitter user Jason Harrdington shared a few images of the game himself, and the build reveals a zany, colorful zombie-slaying affair that looks like it would be a lot more exciting than the first game or its spinoff. Apparently, the leak originated from the /v/ image board and has been circulating ever since, with players taking to social media to share glimpses at what it looks like.
