The Epic Games Store exclusivity window for Dead Island 2 is coming to an end and the game will hit the Steam stores for PC gamers.
After being exclusive to Epic Games Store for about a year, the PC version of Dead Island 2 will be released on Steam on April 22, 2024, publisher Deep Silver has announced.
Meanwhile, Dead Island Definitive Edition and Dead Island: Retro Revenge are having an 85% and 75% discount on Steam respectively.
The zombie action RPG was first announced in 2014 but suffered a series of delays during production until eventually Dambuster Studios, an internal Deep Silver studio, took over development in 2019.
After almost a decade, the game was finally released on April 21, 2023, for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via the Epic Games Store.
In our Dead Island 2 review, we praised the game and said “It’s simple but it’s the best kind of simple: hitting undead yuppies in the face and blowing them up.”
