Have you ever waited ages for a sequel, only to feel like it’s never coming? Well, that’s how fans of Dead Island are feeling right now. After nearly a decade of waiting for Dead Island 2, the hope is that we won’t have to go through this again. Let’s chat about whether Dead Island 3 is really in our future!
How Long Until Dead Island 3 Is Released?
The folks at Dambuster Studios, who finally brought us the zombie-slaying fun of Dead Island 2, are reportedly ready for Dead Island 3. In an interview with Game Rant, one developer mentioned they’ve ‘set the stage’ for a follow-up based on how things wrap up in the second game.
I mean, it’s pretty open-ended—don’t worry, I’m not going to spoil anything here!
You can’t help but wonder if Dambuster Studios is actually committed to following through. Are we looking at another long wait where Dead Island 3 gets announced and then left in limbo for years? It would be soooo disappointing!
Dead Island 2 faced a rough road because it changed hands multiple times during development. If it stays with Dambuster Studios (which fingers crossed it does), I think we might see something come out within the next few years.
The success of Dead Island 2, which racked up over one million sales just days after launch, gives us hope too! The studio has been keeping players engaged with expansions and content drops since then.
If you’re wondering whether or not we’ll get that sequel…it looks like we might just have to sit tight and keep our eyes peeled for any news in a year or two. But hey, there’s always room for hope, right?
