Update: Yager told that the split arose when the two companies' "respective visions of the pr𒈔oject fell out of alignment." Yager plans to reveal more of its future plans at Gamescom in August.

Original story: Yager is no longer working on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dead Island 2. Publisher Deep Silver, which owns the rights to the franchise, made the announcementไ in a brief press release on Tuesday.

"With Dead Island 2, Deep Silver has always been dedicated to delivering the sequel that Dead Island fans deserve," the press release states. "After careful consideration, today we announce the decision to par෴t ways with development partner Yager. We will continue working towards bringing our vision of Dead Island 2 to life, and we will share further information at a later stage."

Deep Silver didn't say who it plans to give the project to next, but apparently things just weren't working out with Yager, otherwise known as the developer of Spec Ops: The Line and Dreadnought. The publisher confirmed in April that Dead Island 2 would 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:miss its spring 2015 release window and instead arrive sometime in 2016, th𝕴ough 🧸even that later date is in question now.

Delay aside, we haven't heard much about Dead Island 2 since it was announced at E3 2014. The studio behind the original Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide, Techland, released its own zombie survival successor 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dying Light in January.
