"It really is the worst possible outcome. "Having a project cancelled in such a late state is a catastrophic event on so many different levels," Yager's managing director Timo Ullmann said to at the time. Eurogamer has verified that the build is from Yager Development, which was dropped from the project in July 2015. That is also just one month before publisher Deep Silver decided to switch developers around three years after work first started. It’s also highly unlikely that the final version of Dead Island 2 (if such a thing ever comes to exist) will resemble this leaked build of the title.ĭeep Silver has recently indicated that they’re still interested in Dead Island, though, so we suppose there are some reasons to remain vaguely hopeful regarding the chance you’ll be able to experience a final version of this project at some point.A playable build of the troubled Dead Island 2 has leaked online, the alleged work of the Berlin-based studio Yager Development.Īs reported by Eurogamer, a version of Dead Island 2 was uploaded to 4Chan - a playable build of the game dated June 2015, one year after it was first announced at E3. It’s also seemingly not that far from completion (relative to what we see) which really raises new questions as to why the game still hasn’t been finished. It’s fun, creative, and retains the spirit of the original game while introducing exciting concepts. Having said that, people are generally pretty impressed with what they’ve played in this build of the game. It’s difficult to fairly assess how good the game would have been based on this version of the title. It’s full of unfinished assets and rough edges.
To be fair, it’s pretty obvious that this build of the game does not represent a finished product. Obviously, this recent leak changes all that.
