Dead Island 2 map and regions explained: Is it open world?
After a decade of waiting, Dead Island 2 is finally here and of course, everyone wants to know if the zombie-slaying game’s map is open world or not.
The original game featured large open districts to explore, with new areas hidden behind a short loading screen. We’d call it a semi-open world. Does the new game follow that same formula, or has it expanded into a fully open world title?
With multiple regions to explore, the map in this sequel is a large one, and we’ll detail all of that below.
Keep on reading to find out everything there is to know about the Dead Island 2 map, including whether it is open world or not, and to see the complete list of HELL-A’s regions.
Dead Island 2 is not open world. Instead, the game has a number of explorable neighbourhoods.
Each neighbourhood is fully explorable but is locked behind a loading screen. That being said, it should still offer plenty of freedom to explore the streets of a zombie-infested LA as you’d like.
This isn’t a game like GTA V or The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but that doesn’t matter.
