Dead Island 2 SoLA - A Festival Full of Zombies

Dead Island 2 is once again making waves in the gaming world. Following the creative House DLC, the second story expansion has now been announced: SoLA, an undead rock music festival in the heart of Los Angeles. This new chapter promises to offer an unparalleled mix of music, horror, and battling against the undead.

Starting from April 17, players can immerse themselves in the blood-soaked festival, which impresses not only with its location but also with new enemies and weapons.

A Stage Like No Other

The SoLA Festival takes place at an ancient, sacred site where worlds collide and a malevolent presence lurks. The so-called Autophage uses music to turn people into zombies. This threat creates a unique atmosphere that players in Dead Island 2 have never experienced before.

New Weapons in the Arsenal

To confront the new, terrifying enemies, the SoLA DLC introduces two legendary weapons. The Ripper, a combination of a baseball bat and a circular saw, is perfect for severing limbs from the undead. Then there's the Sawblade Launcher, living up to its name as a ranged weapon.

Meet the Apex Enemies

The new Apex enemies are not to be underestimated. The Whipper, a zombie driven to violent self-mutilation by the Autophage, attacks with loops of its own entrails. The Clotter, on the other hand, can dissolve into a slime mass before the player's eyes and reassemble elsewhere.
