In case you are wondering, 'Dead Island 2' is no more. Yes the game has been cancelled after being delayed to this year. The developer of the game Spec Ops: The Line, Yager, and Deep Silver are no longer in the game. It is quite sad knowing that the game shows so much promise, including it's clean graphic, it looks like fun to play.

Here's the latest on 'Dead Island 2' release date, news, and updates.

Based on the trailers released of "Dead Island 2", there's one way for me to describe it; it's really clean. If there's an award for the cleanest game ever-visually of course, not clean in a sense that it's morally clean, the game is filled with murder for crying out loud-this game would win the visually cleanest game. I mean despite the gore and the blood and the killing, the game still looks really clean, it's probably the sun.

This game is rumored to be released on August last year; however this was delayed by Yager Development and Deep Silver (Developer of "Dead Island 2"). Dead Island 2's official Twitter account first announced it; tweet below

Dead Island 2 is speculated to be a knee-jerk reaction to the positive response that critics and gamers about the parkour system in Dying Light, and that Yager Entertainment plans to follow-up that success by putting Parkour/Free Running elements to Dead Island 2.

However, the most interesting part of the report, one thing that captured my eyes was when they said that Yager Development is going to add some "light Parkour/Free Running elements" in "Dead Island 2", this is to add to its already awesome theme. This addition has received nothing but positive response from critics and gamers alike. However, it is not being compared to Dying Light, according the Yager Entertainment; the Parkour element is to compete with Dying Light.

But all these are in the past now, as the game is no longer going to happen. Such promise.

Ullmann told GamesIndustry International, "Having a project cancelled in such a late state is a catastrophic event on so many different levels. It really is the worst possible outcome. Everybody involved loses."

As a result of the cancellation, Yager Productions was shut down because it is "single-purpose" division of the company and a lot of jobs were lost.

Whilst other left to start their own companies, Ullmann added, "I really don't blame them, and we wish them all the best. It's tough, and not being given the chance to finish Dead Island 2, that... that hurts, you know? Right after the announcement a part of the team was a bit shell-shocked, of course, but you have to motivate yourself to keep going. Cancellation of projects, especially if the stakes are so high, is not unheard of. It hurt us, yes, but it happens."

Deep Silver announced its intention to part ways with Yager back in July.
