Dead Trigger 2 To Be Released On Android October 23rd

It seems like almost forever since the original Dead Trigger game came out to grace our Android devices with amazing graphics and frantic zombie-infested gameplay, but you might be pleasantly surprised that it did actually only come out just over a year ago. And in that time, it’s managed to amass over 22M downloads over Android and iOS systems, and is looking to follow up that success with Dead Trigger 2. Madfinger Games has today announced that Dead Trigger 2 will be released on mobile devices on 23rd October, and to accompany this announcement has released the video for the game’s opening cutscene; check it out:

 As you can see, even with the impressive visuals of its predecessor, Dead Trigger 2 looks even prettier. Madfinger promises that they have been working on water reflections, shadows, dynamic grass and light projections to “push the boundaries of graphics on mobile devices”, and we’re inclined to believe them; you may remember when we had a look at the game at E3 earlier this year and when we saw it running on the Tegra 4 chip on the NVIDIA Shield, we were pretty gob-smacked.

I know we’ll be waiting for the 23rd of October with giddy anticipation. Who else is excited about Dead Trigger 2? Let us know in the comments.
