It's rarely a good sign when a company has to confirm that a game is still in development because fans haven't heard from it in so long, but this does mean that Dead Island 2 is still moving ahead.Ī leak of THQ Nordic's plans for E3 also suggested that the company is working on some big announcements for some of its most popular series. Last month, the CEO of THQ Nordic, Deep Silver's parent company, said that Dead Island 2 hasn't been cancelled. Nearly a year ago, Deep Silver confirmed that the game hadn't been cancelled and then five months ago, it was revealed that Dead Island 2may have switched developers again. The product listing isn't the only suggestion that the game may show up at E3 2019. The product listing likely isn't an accident as it's on the Microsoft Store and with Microsoft being a platform holder, it is in the best position to know when a game is about to be revealed, or re-revealed as it may be with Dead Island 2. This makes it highly unusual for a product listing to pop up now. The listing does allow fans to successfully place a pre-order for the game.ĭead Island 2 was announced in 2014 and there haven't been many positive announcements about the game since. The listing shows a price of $59.99 and has a description that reads "Welcome to Dead Island, where Paradise meets Hell." The listing also says that the Dead Island 2 release date is December 31, 2019, though this is most probably a placeholder date ahead of the official announcement. On the Microsoft Store, fans of zombie action-adventure series Dead Island can now pre-order Dead Island 2 for Xbox One. There are suggestions that publisher Deep Silver will use the annual industry event to announce the Dead Island 2 release date. The sighting of a Dead Island 2 pre-order listing leads to speculation that the game will make an official appearance at E3 2019.
