Dear Dead Island Riptide players,

These zombies aren't going to bash their own skulls in so we hereby cordially invite you to the closed beta of Dead Island Epidemic! Put your badass zombie bashing skills to good use by grouping up with 3 other players to take down the zombie menace in our PVE horde modes, or see how you stack up against both other players and of course, zombies, in our 3-team PvPvPvE mode, Scavenger!

We've granted you 4 gift copies of the game so you and 3 of your buddies can take part in the zombie madness together!

Features:

Battle Royale: Epidemic's core mode features 3 teams of 12 battling it out in a competition to grab supplies, hold key points, outsmart the competition and blast through hordes of zombies.

Booming Action: You have direct control over your hero. No Last Hitting, mouse-click-to-move nonsense here - it's you, good ol' WASD, and your trigger finger, making it easy to hop in, no muss, no fuss.
No idea what any of that means? No problem. All you need to know is that you need to point your crosshairs towards anyone and anything not on your team!

Craft Deadly Weapons: Fan favorite crafting is here from Dead Island, helping you get the edge (pun intended) on the competition and build an arsenal to suit your playstyle!

So jump in and give it a whirl, be sure to let us know what you think and you can help to shape the future of this game!

Have fun,
your Dead Island team.
