The combat feels good and it’s fun to play, but I was personally hoping for a lot more creativity to set Dead Island 2 apart more from just being set in a different location from the first game, especially when we just recently got Dying Light 2 as well.
Things that you think should break often don’t, and the way you can move through the world is also quite restricted, which, again, compared to its contemporary Dying Light 2 feels outdated at this point.
To summarise – Dead Island 2 is around 25 to 30 hours long if you want to complete all of the story and side quests, and significantly longer if you decide to beat every challenge for 100% completion.It took me out of the experience a bit to have such a static world, especially when that world is screaming at you to be interacted with and with how physics-heavy the combat feels. If you want to be a 100% completionist then there are also 84 challenges to beat, which could take you considerably longer as some have huge goals, such as Hollywood Rich List that requires you to receive (but not hold) a total of $1,000,000 in cash, though you can speed that up by buying and selling weapons with Traders. On top of that, there are 33 side quests and 15 Lost & Found quests, which will probably take you another 10 to 15 hours depending on how many you cleared during the campaign, and these are definitely worth completing as they'll get you some of the best Dead Island 2 weapons available. If you solely focus on the 24 story quests and avoid many distractions, then you should be able to roll the credits after around 15 hours. How long it will take you to beat Dead Island 2 will depend on whether you just want to complete the main campaign, or see everything that Hell-A has to offer.
