Dead Island

New Dead Island shots and trailer discovered

Zombies infest tropical paradise

Aug 22, 2007

Why do zombies have to ruin everything? Not content with setting up shop in Raccoon City, or walking around really slowly in a shopping mall, they've now got their mutated little hands on Dead Island's tropical paradise.

Developed by Techland, the same team who created Call of Juarez, the game will allow you to use just about anything you can find on the island to beat back the zombie hordes. But don’t worry, as you can see from the shots, there will also be a range of the more traditional, gun-shaped weaponry available to you as well.

Call of Juarez was one of the best Wild West shooters we've played in a long time, and also provided us with some of the best glass effects we've seen in a game. Ever. So if you do manage to find time for a swift Pina Colada while battling the undead, you can be sure it'll look fantastic.

Dead Island will be released in 2008 for PC and 360 and it’s very possible that it’ll beat Resident Evil 5 to the shelves. Could the title of King Of The Zombies be taken before the race has even begun? We’ll have to wait and see.
