Possibly lost in all the hubbub of last week’s E3 was the announcement of Dead Island: Riptide, a new entry in the open world zombie franchise. Aside from giving us platform specifications, a grim new logo and the promise of more info later this summer, publisher Deep Silver has kept mum on the new game. Recently, online retailers have listed the game for only $49.99 (that’s $10 cheaper than normal, for all you math people), which has led people to speculate that Riptide may just be a remake of the original Dead Island, perhaps in a Dead Rising 2: Off the Record sort of way. 
Other than assuaging those fears, Norris had nothing else to say about the title, so it appears we’ll just have to keep on waiting for more details. By Jeff Dunn |
