The story expansion “Dead Island 2” will pit players against a Malibu cult next month
Dead Island 2 is getting its first story expansion called House. The adventure takes players to new locations where they must face a mysterious cult while surviving the annoying zombie apocalypse.
This new storyline revolves around techno-death cults run by their mad leader Konstantin, who believes such battles are the “model of the future.” The adventure takes place in a Malibu mansion, described in a press release as a “tangled labyrinth of biomes where rational architecture is undermined by expanding narrative spaces.”
Your guess as to what that means is as good as ours, but House features eight new maps and new weapons, like the long-range K-Rossbow and the flame-breathing Hog Roaster. Developer Dambuster Studios hasn’t posted a trailer, but has released some screenshots, which you can check out below.
Dead Island 2 Haus will be released on November 2nd. You can read our review of the base game here and be sure to check out our in-depth feature on the development of Yager Interactive’s scrapped version of Dead Island 2.
