We're approaching the end of the calendar year, which means it's time for publishers to start putting stakes in the ground for next year's releases. Dead Island Riptide has broken out of the gate, with a release date of April 23, 2013 in North America.

Of course, Dead Island Riptide will be available in a "limited" Special Edition, which adds digital extras to help you survive. The SE will include exclusive weapon mods, a digital strategy map, and a unique character skin.

    It was a fantastic co-op game that had a great scaling mechanism so people of vastly different levels could play together and still be challenged. Their user interface was an unpolished mess but its pretty clear that all new IPs come out the door with a lot of quirks and rough edges.
    
    The story was bland and meaningless but hardly bad.
