    A fairly ordinary graphic remaster of the rather unusual first-person zombie slasher, which includes all patches, DLC and additions, including Dead Island: Riptide. A small bonus is a classic-style arcade slasher, but it won't really excite ordinary fans of 3D action games.

    Everything that was good in the original Dead Island and Riptide (like the combat system and the co-op) is still good in the new versions remastered with the Dying Light engine. Unfortunately everything that was bad (like the writing and repetitiveness) is still bad. [08/2016, p.59]

    Fairly common remaster of a quite unusual first-person zombie fighter game, which includes all the patches, DLCs and add-ons, including Dead Island: Riptide. Small bonus is a classic arcade fighter game; however typical fans of 3D action games probably won't be pleased.

    A quite decent package that contains the two Dead Island games with updated graphics and lots of extras. It’s not something really new, but if you’ve missed them on their initial release now is the time to try them out.
