It’s been almost a decade since Dead Island 2 was first announced, and the game has had more than its fair share of trouble behind the scenes. In fact, Dead Island 2 hasn’t made an official appearance since Gamescom 2014. This led to a lot of people assuming that the game was quietly canceled. However, it seems that Dead Island 2 has been reanimated, and its release date could be poised for next year.
As originally reported by VGC, Dead Island 2 could release by March 2023, which is the end of the fiscal year for developer Deep Silver’s parent company, Embracer Group. This information comes from an Embracer Group earnings presentation that (not so) subtly hinted at Dead Island 2‘s current status. Embracer Group CEO Lars Wingefors couldn’t say whether Dead Island 2 still exists in the first place. But, he did mention that he’s “excited about unannounced titles” when directly asked about Dead Island 2‘s release date.
