Dead Island 2 rises from the dead

Dead Island 2’s future was uncertain after Yager’s deal to take on development collapsed, but it is now in the hands of the UK’s Sumo Digital.

Information is thin on the ground at the moment; Koch Media CEO Dr Klemens Kundratitz kept his cards close to his chest when he confirmed that Sumo Digital was taking over development.

"Sumo showed so much understanding of the brand, had creative ideas and an excellent, vision that was aligned with our own," he told MCV.
