Så har TechLand samlet alt DLC samt de to grund spil Dead Island og Dead Island Riptide i en redux genudgivelse til PlayStation 4, Xbox One og PC. Begge spil er genskab med TechLands spilmotor designet til de nye konsoller. Det bliver muligt at købe begge spil sammen eller hver for sig. Vi har sakset den imponerende mængde af opdateringer TechLand har lavet:

·        Higher Quality Textures
Game textures have been redone in a higher resolution and the level of quality has been improved across the board

·        Photorealistic new lighting system
The lighting system in the game has been vastly improved, providing a much more realistic look to the beautiful sunny tropical setting

·        Physically based shading
The introduction of new physically based shading techniques due to the latest iteration of the Chrome Engine means a higher quality look to the game models and objects as they react in a more realistic way to various lighting conditions

·        Image quality enhancements via anti-aliasing
The addition of more sophisticated anti-aliasing means that console players can now experience
Dead Island without unsightly “jaggies“ – meaning a much cleaner look throughout

·        Improved-quality game models and geometry assets
All major geometry assets (for example: NPCs and character models) highlight a marked quality increase

·        HBAO and motion blur effects
The introduction of Horizon-based Ambient Occlusion  adds a extra layer of depth and realism to the world

Through a better implementation of object shadows, while the all-new motion blur effects will provide a much more cinematic feel to the game experience.

·        Updated game UI
Providing a more consistent look between both Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide. Increase to equal quality level for seamless game experience.

·        The Current-gen Console Experience
The Dead Island Redux Collection will also of course take advantage of the latest console features such as Online 4 Player Co-op, PS Vita Remote-Play (PS4), Share-Play (PS4), streaming and recording

·        Power Fists Power-up
And last but not least, The fan favourite unofficial PC mod will also now be added to both products. Punch your way through the mayhem with craziest power-up ever!
