The installment of Dead Island zombies came to our consoles last year 2011, that is why a lot of people were looking forward to a sequel. It has been with the arrival of Dead Island 2 during this same year 2023 when that has been confirmed thanks to the The game was very well received. In fact, it seems to have exceeded all the expectations that the company had set, so we could see its arrival on another platform.

The game managed to sell more than a million copies in just three days, while in its first month of life it had already exceeded two million. Some really good figures that have led Embracer Group to confirm that Dead Island 2 will be available on a new platform, yes, still unannounced. For now it is a secret, so we will have to wait a bit for them to officially reveal what it is.

Dead Island 2 will appear on a new platform

The game arrived during the month of April for Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and also PC through the Epic Store. Now in the words of the Embracer Group itself, by exceeding the expectations they had at first, we will be able to see the game in another place. The most obvious would be the Nintendo console, although we don’t know if it would be for the current one or for the new Nintendo Switch 2.

I think Dead Island had a really strong launch, after that we’ve had a more normal performance, in line with expectations. What we expect now are promotions, but above all a lot of new content that will also boost the sales of the game. Looking to the future, we plan to release Dead Island 2 on another platform that will bring us more sales.

Although we have told you that we may be able to see Dead Island 2 on the Nintendo platform, perhaps Embracer Group CEO Lars Wingefors is referring to it coming to the Steam platform. Something that perhaps seems more likely seeing that many of the AAA games are not available on the Nintendo Switch. Although as we have said, that could change soon with the arrival of the new console next year.

For now there is not much more information about it, so we will have to wait for new news from Embracer to know what they mean. Steam? Nintendo? Any option is possible, although surely the most real, at least right now, be the arrival of Dead Island 2 on PC via Steam. We will see what happens, we will be attentive to bring you all the information as soon as possible.
