Deep Silver has assured fans that zombie-dismembering actioner Dead Island 2 is still in production.

We haven’t heard much on the game as of late, and with the announcement of tower defense spin-off Dead Island: Survivors earlier this week, folk were getting a little worried. Fortunately, Deep Silver took to Twitter to quell any concerns.

Dead Island 2 was unveiled in 2014 with Spec Ops: The Line developer Yager at the helm, and looked to be shaping up nicely. However, after a quiet period, it emerged that UK coders Sumo Digital had taken over the project, and updates have been few and far between ever since.

 

Dead Island 2 is still in development and we will share more on this at a later stage.
