About

Dead Island is an action role-playing video game originally developed by Techland and published by Deep Silver for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and the PC based on open-ended survival. The game uses a first-person perspective, but place major emphasis on melee combat and ammunition conservation, rather than running and gunning. Since its release, Dead Island has added several DLCs, Bloodbath Arena and Ryder White's Campaign, and an expansion, Dead Island: Riptide. Additionally, Dead Island's publisher, Deep Silver, has since published a MOBA spin-off Dead Island: Epidemic developed by Stunlock Studios, an adventure survivor horror prequel titled Escape Dead Island developed by Fatshark, and a sequel to Dead Island, Dead Island 2 developed by Dambuster Studios.

Featured Article

The Baseball Bat is one of the blunt weapons featured in Dead Island and Dead Island: Riptide. It is a universal if rather weak weapon with a wide range of applicable Mods suited for any situation. Available in its original Baseball Bat form from the start of any playthrough, it is phased out for Big or Metal Baseball Bats as the player levels up, ensuring that the bat will be a constant companion for any zombie killing!
