The visually stunning first-person zombie shooter brings a cutting-edge graphics and a new intuitive touch control scheme especially created for casual players.
Dead Trigger 2 brings gamers into a world where humanity is engaged in the ultimate battle for survival in the face of a global Zombie apocalypse. The reality of this worldwide apocalyptic conflict is underlined by the fact that the game is played out in real-time.
“The first time you play Dead Trigger 2, you become part of a global conflict. You are not alone and you are not playing only for yourself. You are one of many survivors across continents and from different parts of the world,” explained Marek Rabas, CEO at MADFINGER Games. “While there are individual objectives within the context of the game, you must align your efforts together with other players to fulfill a joint global objective.”
The Dead Trigger 2 developers emphasized core features in order to bring more emotional intensity into core gameplay. “We have completely re-worked the game pacing so that it’s more responsive to players’ actions. We placed a major emphasis on making a game that people would find entertaining,” adds Rabas.
The first Dead Trigger has been downloaded by millions of players, leading the development team to create a new, casual gamer-friendly, touch control scheme. Gamers can still use the enhanced virtual joystick, while the Android version will fully support game controllers.
Dead Trigger 2 will offer amazing game content, including powerful Zombie bosses with an inventive approach to elimination, an impressive arsenal of weapons, and very special gadgets.
