Dead Island caused quite a stir when it was re-announced back in early 2011. Originally announced in 2007, the game reasserted itself with an emotive CGI trailer, which itself went of to be honoured at the Cannes Lions 2011<\/a>. In case you’ve missed it, find the trailer embedded below.<\/p>\n

Developed by Techland (Call of Juarez, Nail’d) and published by Deep Silver (S.T.A.L.K.E.R Clear Sky, Risen, Sacred), Dead Island will play out on a tropical holiday resort which becomes infested by zombies.<\/p>\n

The game will focus on a specific story within the context of a zombie ravaged tropical paradise, and when it was announced back in 2007, Techland emphasised that there would be a dynamic, branching narrative and sandbox gameplay.<\/p>\n

Unlike most zombie slashers, the action in Dead Island will take place from a first person perspective, and will have RPG elements. The combat will mostly be melee, and there will be built in 4 player drop in\/drop out co-op.<\/p>\n

The game is gearing up for release on Xbox 360, PS3, and Windows PC in September 2011. The product has just been listed on Steam (http:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/91310\/), along with the system requirements.<\/p>\n
