To put it as succinctly as possible, the property is owned by Deep Silver, which is the publishing division of Koch Media, which itself is the sister company of THQ Nordic, previously known as Nordic Games before it acquired several IPs from the bankrupt remains of THQ. Not only has it been worked on by four different developers (more on that in a second), but the Dead Island IP has several more companies attached to it on the business side. Part of the trouble with getting to the bottom of what exactly is going on with Dead Island 2 is that the game sits in a spaghetti bowl of ownership. Truth be told, I may now have more questions than I did before I started out on this fact finding adventure.ĭead Island 2's publishers are so reluctant to talk about it that you can’t even confirm who’s working on it anymore. I’ve scoured the four corners of the internet, spoken to some of its many developers, and retraced the game’s troubled development history step by step in an effort to draw up a definitive timeline. Desperate to find out more, I’ve tried to learn everything I can about what the hell has happened to Dead Island 2 since we last saw it.
