Yager Development will no longer work on Dead Island 2 as its developer, Deep Silver said in a statement sent to press this evening.

“With Dead Island 2, Deep Silver has always been dedicated to delivering the sequel that Dead Island fans deserve,” Deep Silver said. “After careful consideration, today we announce the decision to part ways with development partner Yager. We will continue working towards bringing our vision of Dead Island 2 to life, and we will share further information at a later stage.”

Good news, yay!

Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

The game look horrible last time they've shown it, but that was about a year ago. Guess not much progress was made, it was supposed to be spring 2015 release, got pushed back to spring 2016, my guess is we will see it no sooner than spring 2017...if ever.

Meanwhile Techland made an awesome game with Dying Light, awesome enough that nobody really cares what happens to DI2.
