The Dead Island series is going free-to-play. Publisher Deep Silver announced Dead Island: Epidemic today, an all-new free-to-play ZOMBA (Zombie Online Multiplayer Battle Arena) game.
Dead Island: Epidemic pits three teams of players against each other in a "desperate fight for survival." The game is in development only for PC and is said to feature "all the trademark elements that are part of the a Dead Island experience."
More details on Dead Island: Epidemic will be announced during Gamescom 2013 in Cologne, Germany later this month. Deep Silver also told gamers to "stay tuned" for more details on the Dead Island universe itself in the time ahead.
This sounds awesome. I've always wanted to play it on my computer but I have a Mac. I wonder if this will be an online game or I'll need to use Bootcamp to play it on Windows?
Hopefully it has the same kind of graphics as the normal games but if it's free it can't be that great?
I'm intrigued by the fact that this will be a MOBA, and pits three teams against each other. I'm not expecting the Dead Island we know. Now, if that will be good, bad.. or even better than the original games.. that's to be determined.
I hope Gamescom gives us info on the developer, gameplay, and a release date.
