New Dead Island shots and trailer discovered

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'stropical 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.

James Jarvis
Executive Producer, GR Video

Hi I'm James or JJ if you like, I'll answer to both. I'm the Executive producer for GR video which means I've had at least a part in all the hot moving pictures you'll find on the site (even if that part was just saying, yes that's a good video). I also produce the Future Games Show and Golden Joystick Awards. Away from the office you'll either find me playing Fortnite, or walking my dog. I'm better at one than the other, I'll let you decide which.
