Dead Island 2’s first story expansion finally has a release date, coming much sooner than expected!  Dead Island 2 Haus arrives on November 2, featuring a new location, weapons, and much more.

While no trailer was accompanied by the press release, Deep Silver Dambuster Studios did reveal new details for the game’s first expansion. 

New Real Estate:

Haus is set in a completely new location, a mysterious and stylish villa in Malibu where the boundaries of morality are pushed to the limit.

This nightmarish location serves as both a sanctuary and as a machine to strip away flesh and harvest the soul. Players will weave through the deranged labyrinth of biomes where rational architecture is subverted by expanding narrative spaces.

Players will have new slaying tools to survive the horror: 

• K-ROSSBOW – Crafted for precision and lethality, unleash devastating long-range firepower and explode zombified brains with ease.
• Hog Roaster – The ultimate ticket to visceral slaying. Why only butcher a zombie when you can BBQ them at the same time?
• Dead Islands – To take the weight off your shoulders whilst you smash undead enemies into oblivion.
• Eight New Skill Cards –Embellish your slayer with an expanded arsenal of skills.

Dead Island 2 Haus Story Expansion will be available to purchase starting November 2 for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. This will be the first of two expansions planned to be released, and for those who own the Dead Island 2 Season Pass, both expansions will be included in it. 

We’re expecting a game update to be released alongside it, and once we know more, we’ll let our readers know. Speaking of which, go check out Patch 2 which was released in August.

What are your thoughts? Do you plan on revisiting the game with some fellow survivors? I know I am, so hopefully we see you out there slaying some zombies.
