Dead Island Dead Island is an upcoming videogame being developed and published by Techland for the Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows. It is an open-ended game centered on survival and trying to find the protagonist's wife on a zombie-infested island. The game uses a first-person perspective; however, the developers are claiming that the game should not be labeled a first-person shooter due to a bigger emphasis on melee combat and ammunition conservation, rather than a shoot 'em up. The website is currently under reconstruction. Techland are also currently working on producing compatibility for the Playstation 3 version, which was announced in the interview the developers had.
