Dead Island Riptide Release Date and Pre-Order Editions Announced

October 30, 2012 by Alex Co

Your return to Dead Island has officially been given a date.

Deep Silver has announced the release date for Techland's follow-up to their zombie first-person action game, Dead Island Riptide. Not only that, but they also disclosed the title's pre-order bonuses, too.

  • Pre-order Edition: This version of Dead Island Riptide will include an exclusive pack of weapon mods that allows even more, manifold ways to dispose of the ghastly zombie hordes on Palanai island.

  • Special Retailers Edition: In addition to the weapon mods this version will contain an alternate character skin not obtainable anywhere else! The Special Edition of Dead Island Riptide will only be available at selected retail partners. Details about the retail partners per territory offering the Special Edition will be announced soon. The Special Retailers Edition will also feature an alternative packshot.

 

Here's the rather grimy box-art for the game:

Undead fans can start taking out the zombie hordes once again when Dead Island Riptide shambles out on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 on April 23, 2013 for U.S. and Canada, with the rest of the world getting their chance on April 26, 2013. 

Are you still excited to slay zombies or has this niche overstayed its welcome?
