Eleven Minute Gameplay Video Of Dead Island Rises And Shuffles About On The Interwebs

leave a comment »

Providing the first good-to-honest stretch of actual gameplay (complete with developer commentary) developer Techland has unleashed the latest footage of forthcoming zombie survival FPS/RPG/Thing onto the interwebs.

The eleven minute gameplay trailer shows zombies, copious amounts of bludgeoning and a weird stretchy leg.

Take a look at it below:

See, what really does it for me is that it takes into account a lot of things which actually MATTER in a zombie apocalypse.

Stuff like having to worry about (and develop) your cardio, the need to strategically land blows to achieve the desired result on an enemy (smashing the legs to prevent movement/smashing the arms to stop attack) and just normal day-to-day stuff that WOULD matter in such a situation like eating food and procuring supplies.

Additionally the focus on melee and improv weapons is appreciated too alongside the feeling that when you finally DO get a firearm of any sort, that it’s somesort of event and feels like one.

I’m fairly impressed by this as of right now.
