Press release:
2 NOVEMBER 2023.
Deep Silver Dambuster Studios are today very pleased and excited to announce that they have just released the “HAUS” expansion for their zombie apocalypse ARPG “Dead Island 2” (the said expansion is available right now for PC and consoles via digital stores).

Set within a mysterious villa in Malibu, where the boundaries of morality are somewhat vague, players need to investigate the secrets of a cult – and its enigmatic leader – as they slug it out amid the Zompocalypse.

A new trailer, to support the launch, has also been released today

Players can tool up with a range of new weapons – as they hack and slash their way through a deranged labyrinth of biomes – including:

K-ROSSBOW – crafted for precision and lethality, allows players to unleash devastating long-range firepower and explode zombified brains with ease

Hog Roaster – the ultimate ticket to visceral slaying while simultaneously allowing you to butcher and BBQ zombies

Dead Islands – to take the weight off your shoulders while you smash the undead into oblivion

8 New Skill Cards – enhancing players’ slaying abilities with an expanded arsenal of skills

Dead Island 2 Haus is out now on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC (Epic Games Store).
