It’s merely a matter of hours (for some) before players can finally jump into Dead Island 2. It’s not like we’ve been waiting for years already or anything. Alas, release time is upon us, and we won’t be waiting much longer before we can embark upon the streets of HELL-A.
Sun-soaked and gloriously gory, Dead Island 2 is a blast with friends, showing the co-op zombie-slaying genre how it’s done in 2023. In my review, I discussed the highs and lows of life in HELL-A, but ultimately, it’s the perfect game to get you geared up for summer.
Now, without further ado, here’s exactly what time Dead Island 2 releases in your region!
What time does Dead Island 2 release?
Dead Island 2 will release at midnight across all regions and platforms. Simple enough, right? No time conversions needed. Just how I like it.
As some of you may be aware, this means Xbox players can actually change their regions to New Zealand and access the game early. Dambuster are no stranger to this method of accessing games early, and have even joked about it on the Dead Island 2 Twitter.
Um… anybody here or has everyone gone to New Zealand? 😶 https://t.co/v3CuZjJ2AP
