Like most games set in a zombie apocalypse, Dead Island 2 throws its players into a vast open-world setting with countless opportunities, but can you explore HELL-A in handheld mode with a Nintendo Switch?
In most open-world games like Dead Island 2, there is no formula on how to play the game, especially with the game having the option to cooperate with your friends. Dambuster Studios developers made sure to include that option, which was one of the pivotal elements of the original game from 2011.

And, speaking of devices, many new games have also begun releasing on Nintendo Switch, which immediately sparked a discussion about whether Dead Island 2 will be available on it.
