So back in 2014 there was a reveal trailer for Dead Island 2 but nothing would come after that for the game, until this year at Gamescom 2022 where we got a surprise CGI trailer and then a gameplay trailer, which you can watch below. We were also told that Dead Island 2 is scheduled to release on February 3, 2023 for PC, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Stadia.
I've also included two other YouTube videos further down in the post, from Eurogamer and Xplay, with a little more information about Dead Island 2.
