Deep Silver has sent out a new batch of Dead Island Riptide screenshots to look at. The follow up to last year’s tropical zombie-apocalypse sim may not look much different than its predecessor, but word is that the game’s engine has undergone lots of improvements.
The screenshots released today take place in Henderson, a town within the game’s new island setting Palanai. A new zombie type can also be spotted in one of the screenshots: what looks like a bearded homeless person who has been disemboweled–and he’s not happy about that.
Riptide has the opportunity to improve on all of the shortcomings of the first Dead Island. While I did not enjoy the first game all too much, I saw some potential in it. Hopefully Riptide has been shaped by player feedback enough that it will be the game that Dead Island should have been. I guess we’ll see what the game has to offer come April 23rd.
