Dead Island 2: How long to beat, location and mission list
It took almost ten years for Dead Island 2’s development to be completed, but it definitely won’t take you that long to beat it.
And that might just be great news, if you’re tired of all the huge maps and checklists we’ve constantly pushed through in all those big open-world games.
So, how long does it take to beat Dead Island 2’s campaign?

In our playthrough, we’ve completed all the main quests, and the seven or eight side quests required to play the story missions at the recommended level, around 18 hours.
It should take around 5-10 hours more, for those of you who want to complete all the content available in Dead Island 2.

Dead Island 2: Post-game guide
Once you clear all the story missions, you’ll be allowed to stay in Los Angeles to keep playing the side quests and Lost & Found missions you’ve left behind in your first run. This should add another 5-10 hours of gameplay, and that’s without taking into account the co-op mode.
Of course, you’ll be allowed to keep your skills and weapons but, should you want to restart from scratch, you can always choose another Slayer: you’ll have up to six save slots to handle for that purpose.
