Dead Island 2: How To Get All 8 Legendary Weapons

Legendary weapons are the highest tier tools of destruction in Dead Island 2. There are only 8 Legendary Weapons total, giving you the most over-powered perks and the most slots to absolutely destroy your enemies. These weapons are incredibly powerful, and each one is totally unique. You can even find special Legendary Guns like a killer handgun, or a classic AK-47 with the power to wipe out entire armies of the undead.

Legendary Weapons are so special and rare, most of them are only found after completing the main story. Because of this, there are some minor spoilers ahead if you’re planning on hunting down all the weapons on our list. If you can’t find one of the quests required to unlock a legendary, it’s probably not available yet. Check your fast-travel to see what side-quests are available. The map doesn’t always display the locations of side-quests, but it does tell you which areas you need to check.
