Unlike the recently released Resident Evil 4 Remake (which I categorise as a third-person horror action-adventure), Dead Island 2 is a first-person horror action-RPG, available to play in both single-player or online co-op. You also get to explore Hell-A (Los Angeles) in a semi-open-world fashion. Players will be able to choose from six protagonists for their playthrough: Amy, Dani, Ryan, Bruno, Carla, and Jacob. Each has their own base stats, such as agility or vitality, and they all have different bonuses; Like getting health back from a properly timed dodge or block. For my part, I chose to play as Jacob - the poster boy of the game. This turned out to be a great choice; Jacob is filled with witty comments, which he delivers in his smooth London accent. Some of the stuff that came out of this guy really cracked me up. All the protagonists and characters in Dead Island 2 are very well-voiced, and have realistic facial animations (but only during scripted cutscenes).
