Dead Island takes over PlayStation(R)Home Mysterious zombie apocalypse spreads on Central Plaza in PlayStation®Home! Deep Silver and Sony Computer Entertainment America LLC (SCEA) announced today that shortly before its release at the beginning of September, the zombie outbreak from the highly anticipated game Dead Island will also spread to PlayStation®Home, offering players an exclusive opportunity to further deepen their Dead Island experience through Home’s Total Game Integration campaign. Terrifying zombies will lurk in the once peaceful Central Plaza and soon enough it will come to resemble the Royal Palms Resort on the tropical island of Banoi, with palm trees and beautiful tropical vegetation, a gorgeous beach and stunning view of the ocean, bringing the unique Banoi feeling to PlayStation Home visitors. A Dead Island themed mini game will be available to PlayStation Home visitors in which players must prove their skills in crafting items and pit their abilities against attacks from a rampaging zombie horde. Just like the co-op mode in Dead Island this mini game can be played with up to 4 players in different play styles. In all, there are 10 mini-game challenges associated with the game users completing all 10 will be awarded with an exclusive in-game weapon “Exploding Meat”. For a bit of relief players can have their photo taken with a zombie or take a zombie survival survey where they can prove their knowledge of the undead and earn 4 free PlayStation Home rewards. At the end participants will be rated with their estimated chance of survival in a real zombie apocalypse. Certain items in the PlayStation®3 system version of the Dead Island will only be obtained through this PlayStation Home event. Each week will introduce more levels and unlockable content including a premium PlayStation Home reward “Exploding Zombie Outfit” for players that pre-order Dead Island directly from Home’s Central Plaza and the aforementioned “Exploding Meat”, a powerful weapon for use in Dead Island that can only be acquired by surviving the PlayStation Home onslaught. PlayStation Home users will also be able to pre-order Dead Island through a themed kiosk directly from the Central Plaza. Official website: www.deadisland.com
Oh wow, I didn't think NA would do something this soon after Killzone 3. I expect HCV to receive the outfit to promote this again. I'm actually interested in Dead Island though...but I'm not sure I'm up for another zombie game I'll have to check it though, this is actually a game I'm interested in this time.
LOL..Per your under the ID fine print "Taste the Flesh", so I think you will be interested with Dead Island fo' sho'! ~__^ **dabble her button nose and run** Ha ha..
This does look like its going to be pretty great. AZ4 said the press release was given by SCEE, looks like eu get to enjoy this as well.
I normally wouldn't care much about something like this, but I'm extremely interested purely due to the fact that you actually get to be yourself and see yourself fighting, like the Fields of Ge Kito game! I guess this is the closest US home will ever come to that, especially since Irem is leaving
I didn't like the game to much but zombies in home (eating brains) it will be better, I'll make sure i send them after casp so i can make my getaway..
There are plenty of zombies in home already but they are usually chasing the females avatars only and shouting hello where are you from lol
This sounds amazing. I really enjoyed the Killzone event, and this sounds even better. I wasnt thinking of buying this game on release, but an exploding zombie sounds too apealing.
The game releases Sept 6. I dont remember how many weeks before the Killzone release when the Home event started, but if this has a prorder incentive I would think it would be the same.
