Dead Island 2: Ultimate Edition launches for PS5 and Xbox Series X on October 22, and preorders are available now.

While Dead Island 2 has been out for a while, the Ultimate Edition is perfect for anyone who prefers physical media to digital, since you’re getting the base game and its two expansions, Haus and SoLA, all on one disc. You’ll also get some gear to help you survive the zombie apocalypse, like various weapon packs, premium skins for all six Slayers, and more cosmetics to apply to each character. Here is a list of all the included weapon and item packs:

If you missed it when it first came out, Dead Island 2 is a horror-action first-person game that unfolds in Los Angeles after the city was overrun with zombies. It has a great sense of humor, plenty of interesting gameplay systems, and it’s one of the best 7/10 games of 2023. Basically, it has a few annoyances, but the positives far outweigh the negatives.
“Games labeled as being in “development hell” rarely release in a state anyone would want to experience–if they release at all. With Dead Island 2, however, Dambuster Studios kicks away a decade of dev hell problems like they’re a zombie lunging for its throat to deliver an undead RPG that is surely imperfect, but also enjoyable and even inventive,” Mark Delaney wrote in GameSpot’s Dead Island 2 review.
