Goodbye Skill Tree: Freedom to Power with the Skill Deck System in Dead Island 2

Goodbye Skill Tree: Freedom to Power with the Skill Deck System in Dead Island 2 ...

In the redesigned gameplay for Dead Island 2, we return to the deep silver series' splatter universe to listen to James Worrall's words: il Creative Director describes the new "dynamic" skill management system, lo Skill Deck.

Dambuster, a studio founder, has openly admitted that the Skill Deck is "one of the coolest additions to Dead Island 2, and perhaps just the most exciting." In fact, the evolution of one's alter-ego will not go beyond the unlocking of branches of a predetermined skill tree, but will also go beyond the acquisition of collectible skill cards, which together will form the Skill Deck.

Players will therefore be able to 'build interactive decks,' customizedchoosing from time to time which upgrades to use to explore the setting, complete the main campaign tasks, or devote himself to pure and simple slaughter of zombies.

This will drastically alter the gaming experience that is offered to users by Ayesha Khan, Dead Island 2's Narrative Designer. "You can use one build to jump higher, switch skills in mid-air, and land with a different build," says the author.

Dead Island 2 is scheduled to be released on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, as well as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in the near future. In recent days, the Dambuster studios have confirmed that the weapons of Dead Island 2 will be able to break.
