The full details via the publisher:
Lose yourself in a surreal, psycho-horror dreamscape as you investigate a mysterious Malibu cult in Dead Island 2‘s first story expansion, Haus.
Haus gives players an entirely new storyline to smash zombies through. Amidst the Zompocalypse, a billionaire’s secret techno-death cult fights for survival in Haus, where humanity is unleashed from its moral restraints. The group’s leader, Konstantin, prophesizes that this is the “paragon of a new future.” It’s up to players to prove them wrong.
Players will battle through Haus with new weapons and cards, which they’ll need to use against the ever-growing population of undead seeking their next meal.
New Real Estate
Haus is set in a completely new location, a mysterious and stylish villa in Malibu where the boundaries of morality are pushed to the limit.
This nightmarish location serves as both a sanctuary and as a machine to strip away flesh and harvest the soul. Players will weave through the deranged labyrinth of biomes where rational architecture is subverted by expanding narrative spaces.
Players will have new slaying tools to survive the horror:
K-ROSSBOW – Crafted for precision and lethality, unleash devastating long-range firepower and explode zombified brains with ease.
Hog Roaster – The ultimate ticket to visceral slaying. Why only butcher a zombie when you can BBQ them at the same time?
Dead Islands – To take the weight off your shoulders whilst you smash undead enemies into oblivion.
Eight New Skill Cards – Embellish your slayer with an expanded arsenal of skills.
