Dead Island 2 Update Rolls Out New Zombie Slaying Modes

Welcome the Revenants in Dead Island 2

The latest Update Patch 6 for Dead Island 2 introduces the much-awaited New Game Plus (NG+) mode. This feature allows you to replay the entire game at an elevated difficulty level while retaining your existing inventory. Continue your journey with your leveled-up character and enjoy the added benefits of three extra skill slots, an increased level cap, new weapons, and exclusive skins. Brace yourself for new enemies as well.

A new zombie variant, dubbed the Revenants, joins the fray. These formidable foes are enhanced versions of Apex zombies, boasting new behaviors and tweaked capabilities designed to make them exceptionally challenging to defeat. "This combined with the changes from New Game Plus are going to push the challenge all the way up to 11," the developers stated in their announcement blog, promising an intense experience for players seeking a real test of their skills.

To assist you in the heightened zombie-slaying challenges of NG+, every weapon introduced will be more powerful than those in the main game, with a greater variety of fixed-rarity weapons available to collect and wield. Additionally, Patch 6 introduces the exciting Neighbourhood Watch horde mode, a unique blend of horde mode and tower defense. Your mission is to defend your home base over five days, spending the first four days fending off hordes of enemies and completing objectives to acquire essential gear.
