New Game Plus


You’ve been asking for it (a lot) and we heard you. Dead Island 2 will get its New Game Plus. In a few months players will be able to dive back into the epic main story with their favorite characters and weapons, cranking up the action with an additional skill slot and increased level cap. But It doesn't end here: the game mode adds fresh skins and brutal weapons, plus an increased difficulty and brand new foes. Get ready to re-visit HELL-A slayers!


Neighborhood Watch


Think that's all? Hell no! Patch 6 introduces Neighborhood Watch, a brand-new, heart-pounding cooperative horde mode. Step into the shoes of the Bobcats, clear out their neighborhood, and defend their frat house from relentless zombie swarms.

Team up with your crew to tackle missions, set traps and stockpile a lethal arsenal. And then…brace yourselves for the fifth and final day, when the zombie onslaught hits hard. If your defenses and teamwork are up to scratch, you might just survive to tell the tale. Plus, you'll constantly unlock new abilities to make every run more savage and electrifying than the last.

And there’s still more. Neighborhood Watch will also pack in new weapons, slick skins, a fresh location and brand new game mechanics.

Gear up, strategize and defend the neighborhood. Go Bobcats!


We'll be dropping more updates soon, revealing even more about the upcoming free patch. Stay tuned so you don't miss any of the hot news!

See You In Hell-A!
