Dead Island 2 fast travel becomes increasingly useful as you open up more of the 10 individual zones within Hell-A, as it means you can quickly switch to a different area without having to fight your way there on foot. As you explore you'll unlock plenty of Side and Lost & Found Quests that involve moving back and forth between destinations, as well as gathering a stack of Dead Island 2 keys that need reuniting with their locks, so this system will make things a whole lot easier for you. However, it isn't available from the start in Dead Island 2, so to begin with you'll have to 'fast travel' to adjacent zones by passing through the gateways connecting them. If you want to know how to unlock fast travel in Dead Island 2 and which locations you can use it from once you access it, then all of the information you need is right here.
How to unlock fast travel in Dead Island 2
To unlock fast travel in Dead Island 2, you need to progress through the main story until you complete The Red Mist quest. That will take you to Venice Beach, where you'll end up meeting the Blue Crab boys and finding refuge in a new safe house. At this point you'll receive a notification that Fast Travel Maps are unlocked, and signpost icons will subsequently appear on your map to indicate the locations you can fast travel from, as show below:
