Developer Silent Dreams and publisher Headup today are announcing the upcoming release of Dead Age 2 for consoles. Headup will publish the tactical zombie survival game for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on August 8, 2024.
Dead Age 2 is a unique combination of survival, management, rogue-like elements, fast turn-based combat, classic role-playing gameplay, and a story in which your decisions directly affect plot progression!
It’s ten years after the zombie apocalypse, and your group has made camp in Freedom City, rumored to be the birthplace of a cure for the zombie plague. However, it’s not just the ravenous undead who are the monsters here, as multiple factions vie for power and resources, attempting to squash all who oppose them. Will you lead your community to safety and security or fall to the dark machinations of other groups?
