If you've been dreaming about paradise, we know a place where you can make those dreams come true--the Island of Banoi. Just off the coast of Papua New Guinea, located south of the Equator and just north of Australia. Until very recently much of the island was wild and primitive and totally untouched by the modern world. Even though the capital, Moresby, was founded by Australian settlers in 1895, many places deep in the interior still have never been seen by western eyes. As a guest of the Royal Palms Resort, the player's stay was supposed to be a dream holiday; a luxurious getaway to the beautiful beaches of a tropical paradise. But faced with the reality of a zombie apocalypse, there is only one thing left to do: Survive.
This is Dead Island... a paradise to die for...
Terror. Violence. Madness. Bedlam. A holiday paradise gone mad. A tropical island turns into total chaos after a mysterious zombie outbreak. Cut off from the rest of the world, the player’s only chance to survive is to fight to the death and find a way to escape from the island. Dead Island combines first-person action with a heavy focus on melee combat, character development and customization of a vast array of weapons. All of these gameplay features are presented in a dark story inspired by classic zombie movies with a gritty and engrossing campaign that can be played with up to 4 players in co-op mode.
Set in an open world tropical island, hordes of different festering zombies await players around every corner while they embark on a variety of thrilling missions through the holiday resort. With firearms and ammunition being scarce the player must rely on utilising found items as weapons for self-defence and fight off zombie hordes in intense melee combat. A diverse range of items can be collected and will later serve to transform the player’s ordinary makeshift weapons into serious instruments of destruction. In addition to satisfying even the most bloodthirsty action fan’s fantasy, Dead Island also features role-playing elements which allow the player to develop one of the game’s unique character classes according to their preferences, all the while learning new skills and fresh tactics during their journey through the perilous environments of the island. What’s more, anytime during a game up to four players can seamlessly join together and experience the intense combat and immersive story with cooperative gameplay.
With the all-new Chrome Engine 5 powering Dead Island, the game will use the latest installment of Techland’s acclaimed proprietary game engine, allowing the player to experience the tropical island paradise in graphical splendour with diverse environments like lush forests and detailed city environments.

Worth every penny..
I have been wanting Dead Island for a while, but unsure if I should get it due to being such a big fan of Resident Evil and Silent Hill, and I didn't want to be disappointed...and oh how I was not disappointed. The game is so different to others, its more of a survival but it has RPG elements so you have the freedom to do side missions whenever you wish. Good graphics, great storyline and awesome game play, especially the one on one fighting. Everytime a zombie appears from nowhere it does give you a shock (something the latest RE did not manage to do). Only problem is the impact engine. There are a lot of times where you find yourself stuck in some trees you weren't supposed to go in, or zombies appear through doors. That's the one aspect which grinds on you after a while. Apart from that, solid game and would recommend it to anyone that wants a challenge (or even if you just enjoy a good horror).

A beautiful journey between rotten humans!
Dead Island is yet another zombie game... but if they are all done like that, I say Yes! An entire island full of zombies, that we'll have to kill to unveil the mysteries of that place. A mix between Dead Rising and Far Cry, Dead Island is a good choice for every action lover! First person dismembering action, in a fully detailed island. Dozens of weapons, thousands of brainssss!

I like this game!
I like to smash those ugly zombie heads. If you like the atmosphere of a beautiful island and the smell of a rotting corpse, than its your game.

Time to mow down some zombiezzz
Melee combat at its peak, almost every object that you'll see will become your glimmer of hope for survival. With stunning visuals in varied environments, you're in for a one solid session of intense zombie massacre.

Dead Island
It's a good game. At first moment the choice of making it in first person is weird, but afert a few minutes you know why. Great landscape and movements.

Dead Island
Dead Island is a huge game where upon you can stick to the main story or branch off on various mini quests. The overall plot is well written and the characters offer additional depth. The zombies hordes vary and can be challenging to overcome. There are a few glitches in the gameplay which can allow you to make life easy for yourself. But where's the fun in that!! Overall, I found this game to be easy to pick up and difficult to put down. Certainly one for the survivalist horror fans!!
