Deep Silver and Dambuster Studios' Dead Island 2 may have dropped off the radar for a few years, but the zombie-killing action RPG is now very much alive and kicking after its re-reveal during Gamescom Opening Night Live earlier this year. Fans were a little disappointed after the recent news that Dead Island 2 had been delayed yet again, but with its new April release date still looming, it won't be too long until gamers can get their hands on the long-awaited title.

In an attempt to further pique player interest, the various editions of Dead Island 2 have been revealed. These cover everything from the Standard Edition to a special HELL-A Edition that includes various physical and digital items for fans to enjoy. In addition to the various options, there will also be a pre-order bonus to help encourage those early sales, all of which are available to order now.

Some fans may be itching to play Dead Island 2 as soon as possible, so it would make sense that they'd want to pre-order Deep Silver's upcoming title and get their hands on the release from day one. If any gamers are planning on pre-ordering, they'll be able to access the Memories of Banoi Pack, which features a number of in-game items like the Banoi War Club, the Banoi Baseball Bat, the Balanced Weapons Perk, and a Personal Space Skill Card.

For any players looking to pick up Dead Island 2 as a physical copy, they have a few options to choose from. There is of course the Standard Edition, which includes a copy of the base game for either PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, or Xbox Series X/S. For any early birds, the Day One Edition comes with the Pre-Order Bonus as well.

Gamers can also opt for the Dead Island 2 Pulp Edition, which comes with a physical copy of the base game on a platform of their choice, the Pre-Order Bonus, and the Dead Island 2 Pulp Weapons Pack which includes in-game items the 'Homewrecker' Sledge Hammer and the 'Eye Opener' Pitchfork to help them mete out some punishment on their undead foes.

Dead Island 2 Deluxe And Gold Edition

If players would like to go digital instead, Dead Island 2 has a few downloadable versions with some additional content. The Standard Digital Edition mirrors the physical one, with just the base game and a Pre-Order Bonus available. The Deluxe Edition of Dead Island 2 also comes with some bonus content in the form of the Golden Weapons Pack and Character Pack 1 & 2 which features a unique costume and weapon for the playable protagonists.

Dead Island 2 Gold Edition features all of the above, in addition to the Pulp Weapons Pack and an Expansion Pass so players are ready for all the post-launch content that Deep Silver will be releasing. While Dead Island 2's DLC currently remains a mystery, it will hopefully include a range of content like new modes, activities, and story missions alongside the standard items and cosmetics.

Dead Island 2 HELL-A Edition

Then there's the no-holds-barred Dead Island 2 HELL-A Edition, which has the biggest variety of in-game loot as well as some physical items. This edition comes with the Pre-Order Bonus, Pulp Weapons Pack, Golden Weapons Pack, Character Pack 1 & 2, Expansion Pass, and a unique Steelbook case for the Dead Island 2 base game. In addition to plenty of in-game perks, gamers will also get some Dead Island 2-themed merch like a Venice Beach Travel Map, six Slayer tarot cards, two pin badges, and a patch.

Dead Island 2 releases April 28, 2023 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
