Space Crew is superficially similar to FTL: you manage a crew in space as you deal with peril, put out fires and fight off aliens. It's set apart by between-mission management, during which you get the steady dopamine drip of ship, crew and equipment upgrades and customisation.
Dead Island: Riptide Is Currently Free as Dead Island 2 Gets Steam Release Date
13.02.2024 - 21:07 / ign.com / George Yang
Developer Dambuster Studios has announced that Dead Island 2 will be available on Steam on April 22. To celebrate, publisher Deep Silver is having some promotions around the series.
Kicking it off, Dead Island: Riptide Definitive Edition is free on Steam until February 15. Dead Island Definitive Edition and Dead Island: Retro Revenge are discounted at 85% and 75% discount, respectively.
The latter is a side-scrolling game developed by Empty Clip Studios, best known for other small side-scrolling games likes A King's Tale: Final Fantasy XV, Streets of Kamurocho, and Gargoyles Remastered.
Dead Island 2 was first released on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Epic Games Store on April 21, 2022. Now that its year-long exclusivity period on Epic Games Store is over, it's now making its way to Steam.
Dead Island 2 received its first DLC story expansion, called Haus, back in November 2023. The second story expansion, called SOLA Festival, is set to be release sometime this year.
In IGN's Dead Island 2 review, we said, "Dead Island 2 is a hilarious gore-fest and a competent zombie-slaying adventure, but lacks creativity outside of its great sense of humor.
