The story for the game is as follows:
“Hell-bent on saving his cat, Max must carve a bloody path through a zombie-infested California, tearing his way through hordes of the undead, battalions of corrupt soldiers, and a slew of evil-minded ex-cons. Pull off crazy combos, collect power-ups, wield super weapons, and unleash insane magic attacks as you fight to become the amazing 16-bit side-scrolling hero you’ve always believed yourself to be!”
Aside from Retro Revenge, Deep Silver is also releasing Dead Island Definitive Edition, Dead Island: Riptide Definitive Edition, and Dead Island Definitive Collection for PC, Xbox One, and Playstation 4.
