Escape Dead Island released for the PlayStation 3 in 2014, diverges from the traditional zombie survival gameplay of the "Dead Island" series, offering players a narrative-driven, third-person action-adventure experience. Set in the same universe as its predecessors, the game follows the story of Cliff Calo, a young man determined to uncover the truth behind the mysterious events plaguing the island of Narapela. As Cliff, players navigate the island's treacherous terrain, encountering both zombies and human adversaries while piecing together the dark secrets hidden beneath the surface. With its cel-shaded art style, psychological thriller elements, and emphasis on stealth and exploration, "Escape Dead Island" provides a unique perspective on the franchise, offering a compelling narrative-driven experience for PlayStation 3 players.
