Dead Island 2 is finally available on Steam as of today, April 22. Its arrival on Valve's storefront has been highly anticipated by the fandom, as underlined by the fact that Dead Island 2 is already listed as the best-selling game on the platform.
Publisher Deep Silver originally announced the Dead Island sequel in 2011. 12 years and three development studios later, Dead Island 2 finally debuted to decent reviews last spring. However, the PC version of the open-world action RPG launched as a timed Epic Games Store exclusive.
Just a day following its first release anniversary, Dead Island 2 finally reached Steam on April 22. It took no time to establish itself as a massive hit on Valve's PC storefront, having debuted at the top of its Top Sellers chart. While its name may suggest otherwise, this list takes all recent forms of revenue into account, ranging from sales of game copies to subscriptions and other types of microtransactions. It's hence not unusual to see it topped by free-to-play titles, but the evergreen performer Counter-Strike 2 is currently below both Helldivers 2 andDead Island 2.
Steam Top Sellers are categorized by total revenue generated over a short period of approximately the last two weeks.
The zombie RPG's Steam debut arrives less than a week after Dambuster treated Dead Island 2 to its second story DLC. Titled SoLA, the $14.99 expansion adds roughly three hours of content to the game, in addition to introducing two new enemy variants and a pair of Legendary weapons, as well as a new location to explore. Both SoLA and the rest of Dead Island 2's existing post-launch content have made its way to Steam alongside the base game.
A factor that likely amplified Dead Island 2's early success on Valve's storefront is the generous launch sale that Deep Silver decided to hold to commemorate its release. Specifically, the ARPG launched at a 50% discount, which applies to everything from its vanilla version to the Deluxe and Gold Editions. Almost all of the Dead Island 2 add-ons are also available at up to 50% off right now. These promotional prices will be available until next Monday, April 29.
The strong Steam debut that the game is currently enjoying did not come out of the blue. The fan anticipation for it was already apparent by mid-April, when the 11-year-old Dead Island: Riptide got a massive player count spike after Deep Silver started hinting that Dead Island 2's Steam launch was imminent.
Dead Island 2 is scheduled to release in February 2023, almost ten years after it was originally announced. The game has switched development studios twice in that time; it was originally developed by German company Yager Development, then by British studio Sumo Digital, before another British

Now is the perfect time to buy on Steam, and the window of opportunity isn't going to last forever. As a long-delayed sequel to a 2011 zombie-slaying hit, in 2023 after being passed around from developer to developer for years. Despite these troubles, however, the game released to a generally positive critical reception, accurately recapturing the mindless appeal of the original with just enough updates to flesh out systems that could feel unsatisfying in its predecessors.
It's been a while since the last proper Crash Bandicoot game - no, I'm not including Crash Team Rumble, and neither should you - and even longer since the last Spyro game, although rumors continue to circulate that the purple dragon will be revived soon. Odd considering how much stock both characters have with multiple generations of gamers. The pair's remastered trilogies are evidence of that, and right now you can grab both with Crash 4 thrown in for good measure for a lot less than usual.
