Dead Island: Riptide may have been positioned by Deep Silver and developers Techland as a standalone sequel to the original Dead Island, but though it wasn’t a numerical follow up, from a narrative perspective, it very much felt that way.
The upcoming Dead Island 2 is, of course, going to feature a new cast of characters and a new setting, which means it’ll be quite divorced from its predecessors where its story is concerned, but there’s plenty about the characters of the universe and things such as the zombie virus outbreak and its origins that get more light shed on them in Riptide. To that end, then, here, we’re going to follow up on our recent recap of Dead Island’s story and cover the full story of Dead Island: Riptide.

I am intrigue on where dead island 2 story going to take this weird story but we shall see.
I hope we get to see the original characters at some point. Also, that scum guy from the prison.
Basically resident evil trilogy story
I hope they can explain what happened at the end of Riptide thanks to Sam B being alive and perhaps another character, I saw the interview of how the story connects but of course no answer to the ending of Riptide
I thought dead island 2 happens because some or all of the good guys lose the battle with the mutagen and become a new infected and carry the virus to calafonia. It would be cool to fight them as a sub boss or talk with them about what they have been doing or maybe they could be part of the DLC pack can’t wait to play the new game.
Isn't Riptide just a standalone spinoff?
Whenever i first played this game with my friend n first saw harlow i immediately knew she was untrustworthy n was a villain my friend at the end said how did u call it n i was like idk she didn’t look trustworthy
wait. 10 years have passed?
Am I the only one bothered that dead island 2 doesn’t take place on an island? 😆
"Before You Play Dead Island 2"
No thanks, I am good. I rather not bother with Z tier garbage franchises.
I’m here because the definitive edition of this game is bugged and it won’t let me pass the dr krassuer mission. Won’t let me finish the mission
Yerema biting that guy, THAT'S why the virus spread on the ship. I can't believe I forgot she was a PATIENT ZERO.
You know what's funny? Almost all of these villains don't understand that the money will be worthless and they'll have nothing to rule over because of how fast the virus is. By the time they're rolling in money the world would be in danger and nothing can stop it as it destroys people, including the villains themselves.
