Remember that DLC for Dead Island that was scheduled to hit by the end of the month? Well, yeah, we’re here already at the final day of September and…no DLC. Bloodbath Arena DLC is the first out of the gate in terms of post-launch content for the game. But certain main game issues have been holding back Techland from releasing the new content–which will bring 4 new maps where players will be pit against endless hordes of zombies.
“We are working hard to make the Bloodbath Arena DLC available as soon as possible. However, due to further polishing of the main game the finalisation of the DLC code has been delayed,” says the studio. But don’t worry, we won’t have to wait too long for an update on this whole DLC scenario: “We know that many fans are eagerly waiting for it and apologise for any inconvenience. We expect to announce a release update next week.”
