Lady Lilith Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/07/01/escape-dead-island-coming-to-ps3 We’re pleased to announce that Escape Dead Island is coming to PS3, a whole new survival-mystery game with a fresh perspective on the Dead Island universe. Escape represents a crucial bridge between the events of Dead Island and Dead Island 2, and will finally reveal the origins of the virus, even some tantalizing clues where the events are going to lead… but it’s going to be up to you to decide what to believe. That’s because this story-driven, single-player game is played through the eyes of Cliff Calo, who’s watching his world unravel. Cliff is the spoiled son of a powerful media mogul who has stolen a yacht with his friends determined to film the documentary of the century: exposing the truth about the Banoi outbreak to the public. Their plan: infiltrate the archipelago’s top-secret quarantined island of Narapela and document everything. Players will freely explore this all-new island, sneaking to avoid undead that can hear and smell you. But even this island full of zombies isn’t what it appears to be on the surface. Cliff struggles with his own sanity as the world around him begins to become increasingly unpredictable. Time distorts and folds in on itself; strange messages appear and impossible events shatter reality. Oceans turn to blood, containers plummet from the clear sky… If Cliff had any thoughts about this being a routine documentary, he’d be “dead” wrong. The whole experience is vividly realized with comic-inspired visuals that complement Cliff’s surreal situation, delivering on Dead Island’s promise of a paradise gone to hell. In the case of Escape, it turns out to be a particularly private hell. What are the true origins of the virus? What is real in this bizarre place? What are you going to believe? We can’t wait for you to get your hands on Escape Dead Island later this year to find out! Is it just me, or are we seeing a whole lot of Dead Island recently? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PREDRAG-K Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Yeah, how many different Dead Island games are we going to get? I'm just sticking to the main titles though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damon8r351 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 From the cel-shading and the story-driven and fresh-perspective talk, I almost thought this was another Telltale release for a second. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowwindow7 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Milking The Series Dry i don't know... it looks like the last of us met the walking dead mixed together and this game came out, even the weapon he's carrying looks like those crafted melee weapon's in the last of us.

Lady Blanc Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I'm not overly sure about this one, it sounds promising, but it's a departure from the series' overall style. I've played Dead Island on 360 & enjoyed it (except for the frequent & annoying bugs ), haven't tried Riptide yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STRANGEgenius Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 If only they made this type of game but with a story as heart wrenching as that Dead Island trailer, then i would be really excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Lilith Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/11/14/escape-dead-island-launch-trailer-released-game-hits-1118/ We’re thrilled to announce that, in just a few short days, Escape Dead Island will make landfall on PS3! Escape Dead Island is a single-player, survival-mystery game set in the blockbuster Dead Island universe. Escape turns the world upside-down, exposing an underbelly of mysteries and secrecy around the undead virus. What caused the Banoi outbreak? How is the world reacting? Who really has the most to lose… or win… as it spreads? These questions have been burning in both the Dead Island community and in the mind of Escape’s protagonist Cliff Calo. Now it’s time for some answers. Cliff, a slacking journalism student out to prove himself to his executive father, sets sail with a few friends to cut through a naval quarantine and find out what really happened on Banoi. If they can get the truth out to the world, they’ll be heroes. But nothing in Escape Dead Island is quite what it seems, and Cliff’s team ends up on an island with far more to hide than they expected. While exploring and dealing with the island’s threats, you’ll be photographing evidence and gathering clues to unravel what’s been going on in this increasingly strange place. As the pieces begin coming together, the world starts shifting under Cliff’s feet. Even time itself may work differently here. What is real on this island? It’ll be up to you, the player, to ultimately decide. But regardless of which truths you choose to believe, Escape will offer up tantalizing glimpses of Dead Island’s origins and foreshadow the future of Dead Island 2. You can pre-order at GameStop today to get guaranteed access to the Dead Island 2 beta next year. You can start uncovering the truth in Escape Dead Island on November 18th! We can’t wait to hear what you discover. I'm still kinda shocked that we're seeing this much Dead Island considering how buggy I've heard these games are.
