Etter at Yager Entertainment mistet oppdraget med å lage Dead Island 2 har det vært stille rundt spillet. Utgiver Deep Silver kan endelig lette på sløret og fortelle (via MCV UK) Sumo Digital har tatt over jobben. Koch Media-sjef Dr Klemens Kundratitz sier følgende:
"Sumo showed so much understanding of the brand, had creative ideas and an excellent, vision that was aligned with our own.
It just made perfect sense for us to move the project to them. We will reveal more details at a later stage, but for now I'd like to say that we are obviously super excited about the progress that we are making with them."
Vi regner med å få høre mer om spillet på sommerens spillmesser.
