Dead Island 2 receives another delay, official launch gets pushed back by 12 more weeks
Dead Island 2 has received yet another release delay, and its official launch has been pushed back by 12 more weeks. The title was initially scheduled to come out on February 3, 2023. The new release date for the game is April 28, 2023.
Dead Island 2, which is the sequel to the pretty successful 2011 title, has been in development since 2014, when the spin-off to the prequel was released.
The development process for the title has been quite rocky. Over the last couple of years, the game has switched developers and has once been entirely forgotten by the community.
However, with its subsequent reveal and re-reveal during various game shows, Dead Island 2 was finally able to garner renewed interest. It did seem like February 3, 2023, would actually be the date when the title would finally go live.
Unfortunately, this is not the case, and the game’s release will be pushed back all the way to the end of April 2023.
While talking about the delay, developer and publisher Deep Silver said:
It continued:
There was a lack of hype about the game even months before its scheduled release date, leading many players to suspect that something was amiss on the development front.
The delay in the title's release does not exactly come as much of a shock. However, it’s still unfortunate news for those who have been waiting for it to go live.
The game will now be released on April 28, 2023, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Epic Games Store.
