Deep Silver revealed today Dead Island’s packshots. The game is developed by Techland, is rated 18 and is scheduled for a 2011 release. It will be an open ended game that can be best described as a mix of Far Cry 2 and Dead Rising/Left 4 Dead. Dead Island combines first-person action with a heavy focus on melee combat. Players will also be able to develop their characters and customize a vast array of weapons. Read More: Dead Island – Packshots revealed
Here is a 20 minutes gameplay footage from Dead Island. The previous CG trailer was quite misleading, as Dead Island won’t be a survival horror game. It looks more like a mix between Far Cry 2 and Left 4 Dead or Dead Rising. Which is good but come on, we’ve seen a lot of similar games. It’s time for something original, something new, something that will indeed shock us. And Dead Island doesn’t look like it. On the other hand, if you’ve always wanted a sandbox Dead Rising game, you’ll love it. So be sure to check it out. Read More: Dead Island – 20 Minutes Gameplay Footage

The sepia filter that is used in this trailer will also remind you of Capcom’s zombie game, Resident Evil 5. You can check out this ‘in-game’ trailer after the jump.
