"Our Yager team is fully committed to the development of AAA quality titles," Yager boss Timo Ullmann said when it was revealed its Dead Island 2 was cancelled. Three locations, a raft of characters and classes as well as online co-op functionality are all included, although the latter is disabled.

"It's a great story to tell everyone that it's on its third studio, but we like to be judged on the end result and we're really confident that when it comes out it's going to be a kick-ass zombie game. It's just a testimony of our dedication to get it right. "Look, Dead Island is a very important brand for us and we've got to get it right.
"My favourite question," Kundratitz said when our friends at asked for an update on the beleaguered zombie sequel.
Dead Island 2 is still without a release date, but Koch Media boss Klemens Kundratitz recently insisted it was still important for the company.
