Dead Island 2 is all about battling the undead and looking fabulous while doing it.
With the release of Character Packs 1 and 2, players who purchased the Deluxe or Gold edition of the game are eager to claim these unique cosmetics and weapons.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll outline how to unlock and claim these character packs.
What Is Dead Island 2 Character Pack 1
Character Pack 1 enhances the slayer Jacob’s arsenal with the Devil’s Horseshoes special weapon and the Rodeo Sunset outfit.
This outfit can only be used by Jacob, while the weapon can be wielded by any character. When you equip the Rodeo Sunset outfit, Jacob transforms into Silver Star Jacob.
What Is Dead Island 2 Character Pack 2
Character Pack 2 adds exclusive content for Amy, including the Neurunner outfit and the twin-bladed weapon, Casimir & Julienne.
While the outfit is exclusive to Amy, any character can use the unique blades.
When you switch to the Neurunner outfit, Amy becomes the Cyber Slayer.
How To Use Dead Island 2 Character Packs 1 And 2
To gain access to Character Packs 1 and 2 in Dead Island 2, you must purchase either the Deluxe or Gold edition of the game.
These editions come with the exclusive skins for Jacob and Amy and additional outfits and character-specific weapons for all slayers.
Although players who purchased the Gold, Deluxe, or Hell-A editions of Dead Island 2 have guaranteed access to Character Packs 1 and 2, they cannot claim them immediately.
Instead, they must wait for an official release from the Dead Island 2 developers.
The Dead Island 2 Twitter account has announced that Character Packs 1 and 2 will be available for download soon after the game’s release.
They plan to deliver the character packs to Gold, Deluxe, and Hell-A edition owners during the summer 2023.
Summer begins on June 21, so players can expect at least a two-month wait before claiming their character packs.
There may also be additional DLC released during this time.
