Dead Island Definitive Edition Patch Details

By Lexley Ford,
When an older title gets updated and re-released on newer tech, we hope that it will work perfectly. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. Thankfully, a new update for Dead Island has gone live that should alleviate some of the issues that players have been experiencing with the title since it launched earlier this year.

The new patch includes:

  • Added missing weapons (BBQ, Exploding Meat, Ripper)
  • Proper loot and updated item placement (like collectibles)
  • Removed the metallic blood effect
  • Resolved audio issue with stuttering
  • Adjusted level of co-op player sounds
  • Co-op network stability improved
  • Text visibility updated
This should now mean that players who are returning to the island 'paradise' of Banoi will be able to enjoy their stay that little bit more.
