About

Dead Island 2 (2023) is a survival horror first-person shooter set in zombie-infested Los Angeles, where players explore an open world, scavenge resources, and engage in fast-paced melee combat against swarms of undead. This action-adventure sequel picks up fifteen years after the previous game with a fresh cast of characters and storyline, delivering the series' signature blend of brutal combat and zombie apocalypse survival gameplay.

The game is fairly accessible for mid-range gaming PCs, requiring an entry-level GPU with a benchmark score around 9212 and a CPU score of approximately 6817 to meet minimum specifications. With 10 GB of RAM needed, most modern GPUs in the GTX 1650 to RTX 3060 range should handle the game at solid FPS performance on medium to high graphics settings, making it a good benchmark title for testing entry to mid-tier hardware.

With a rating of 69/100, Dead Island 2 offers solid entertainment for fans of action games and zombie-themed content, though it's not groundbreaking. If you enjoy first-person action combat and don't mind checking FPS performance on your rig, it's worth testing during your next GPU benchmark session.

Performance profile

April 2023 release. As a current-generation title, Dead Island 2 pushes modern hardware — expect to need an RTX 40-series or RX 7000-series GPU to enjoy it at native 4K Ultra without leaning on upscaling.

Dead Island 2 is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in Dead Island 2. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.
