The DLC Dead Island 2: SoLA has been released:

Dead Island 2 - Official SoLA Launch Trailer

Feel the beat pulsating through the heart of SoLA, the ultimate Californian music festival set against the backdrop of ancient grounds.

But as the night sky ignites - with its neon hues and bass drops - a malevolent presence awakens, plunging the festival into chaos. Amid the wreckage, an insatiable hunger lurks in the shadows, craving more than just the rhythm of the night.

Thanks Couchpotato!

I did enjoy the first game some years ago when I played it, though I've never gone back for a revisit. I'll be watching here to see what people think about this sequel.

Also, the base game releases on Steam in 3 days in case anyone was holding out for that. I know some people probably passed on it until now because it was only on Epic.

 

[Couchpotato]

Me as well this game surprised me after the long delays and different developers it was fun. The gore system is realistic based on your weapon, but the ending sucks as usual.

 

[Carnifex]

Nod, that ending was no bueno. According to my save files the last time I played was in Jan of 2012.

 

[JDR13]

That's pretty impressive if you were able to play this in 2012.

 

[Carnifex]

The first Island game! /bonk.

 

[JDR13]

Ah ok. I thought you were replying to that potato guy.

 

[Couchpotato]

You just love to start shit dont you. Bet the Codex and chan sites love ya

 

[JDR13]

Sometimes I forget how sensitive you are, my little tater-head.

ANyway...

DLC is fun.
They've nailed the look and feel of a festival that's turned into a massacre, and there's a new zombie type that basically uses its loops of intestine as a whip.

 

[Couchpotato]

Hey now I don't start this stuff he does.

Anyway that was my point the game and the DLC are decent and enjoyable.

I haven't played this DLC yet but previews make it sound promising.

@Shagnak Since you played it does it extend the terrible cliffhanger ending?

 

[Carnifex]

I kinda like the idea of a festival turning into a slay-fest, just might have to dip into that one.

@Shagnak Since you played it does it extend the terrible cliffhanger ending?

Nope, not at all. Just more, completely unrelated, crazy stuff.
I don't think we're going to get any closure there.
