Dead Island 2: a sun-soaked apocalypse in Los Angeles
Dead Island 2 is a gory first-person zombie slasher where resort-town Los Angeles β nicknamed HELL-A β has become a quarantine zone packed with the undead. Dambuster Studios, under publisher Deep Silver, leaned away from survival horror and toward a fast, almost arcade-style splatter action game: you carve through zombies by the dozen, experiment with weapons and elements, and laugh along with the dark humor soaked into every corner of L.A. What you buy here is the full PC version of the game on Steam β we deliver it as a Steam gift through the supplier's bot.
What makes the game special
The pride of Dead Island 2 is its F.L.E.S.H. dismemberment system (Fully Locational Evisceration System for Humanoids). Zombies react to hits layer by layer: skin peels, muscle shows, bones break, limbs fly off. It isn't just spectacle β where and how you strike decides how fast an enemy goes down. Add the elements: water conducts electricity, spilled fuel ignites, acid eats through flesh. Combining traps and weapons smartly turns a fight into a real "zombie sandbox."
The Slayer hero and progression
You play as one of the Slayers β people immune to the virus, each with their own personality and starting perks. Progression runs on skill cards you can freely swap between fights, tailoring your build to your style: a kicking, blocking tank, a nimble dodger, or an elemental-weapon master. Weapons wear down, get repaired and upgraded with mods, so you tune your favorite bat or katana to fit you. The game supports co-op for up to three players, so you can run the campaign with friends.
Editions: Standard and Ultimate
There are two editions here. Standard is the full base game of Dead Island 2 with the entire main campaign across Los Angeles. Ultimate Edition is the maxed-out bundle: on top of the base game it includes both major story expansions β Haus (a dark, psychedelic cult mansion) and SoLA (a bloody desert festival) β plus character packs, weapon packs and extra game modes. If you want all of the Dead Island 2 content without buying DLC separately, go Ultimate.
When the game and expansions launched
Dead Island 2 originally launched in April 2023 and arrived on Steam on April 22, 2024. The Haus story expansion came in 2023, SoLA in 2024, and the Ultimate Edition with both expansions on board released on October 22, 2024. In other words, everything in Ultimate is already available and playable β this is not a preorder or "future" content.
How we deliver the game: a Steam gift
We deliver Dead Island 2 as a Steam gift through the supplier's bot. The flow is simple and safe for your account:
- You provide your Steam friend invite link and state your account region.
- Our bot adds itself to your friends β you don't need to accept anything.
- The bot sends the gift, usually within a couple of minutes.
- You accept the gift in Steam, the game lands in your library, and the bot removes itself from your friends after delivery.
Steam Guard is not required, and activity or other games on the account don't matter. You only need friend requests to be allowed in your profile settings.
The gift region β the most important part
A Steam gift is tied to a region. We offer two delivery variants of each edition: a wide one (around 46 regions) and a single-region one (CIS). One rule: your Steam account region must fall within the gift region, otherwise Steam simply won't let you accept it. And one more key point β you must not already own this edition of the game on the receiving account: Steam doesn't allow accepting a gift for a game you already have. If you're unsure which variant is yours, pick the one matching your account's country, or message us before buying.
