There’s a good lot of zombie news floating around the past couple of days. Probably the biggest news is that Dead Island has gotten its official announcement trailer. And what an announcement trailer. In a matter of hours, it has gone completely viral. It’s suitably creepy and impressive. Although we don’t actually get to see any of the game in there, it has pretty much won the internet. Axes sinking into rotten flesh, spraying gore and dismembering as it goes? Check. Lo and behold! And, what’s creepier than a little girl?
The game is released in August 2011 in the States. There’s no official UK/Ireland release date as yet, but it’s more than likely going to be within a few days of the States’ release. I mean, why would they hold off bringing such an amazing looking game to us?
The Walking Dead Game is real. Yes, after what seems like decades of speculation, it has finally been revealed as being in development. In fact, the deal with Robert Kirkman and Telltale Games is for multiple videogames based on the hit comic.

It’s unclear what genre or, in fact, platform the game is being developed for. What we do know is that if there’s any further developments, we’ll let you know about it. Until then, check out the first official artwork wallpaper. As always, click to enlarge.

The rumours of this game have come with the news of group layoffs at the company, which Bungie themselves have comment on being false. However, they’ve yet to comment on the rumours about this game.
