New screenshots from Techland's zombie shooter-adventure Dead Island have shambled their way onto the 'net and are shedding rotting pixels everywhere.

Dead Island, which is in development for PC and Xbox 360, has previously been described as Far Cry meets Lost meets Resident Evil meets Dead Rising, with plenty of bloodthirsty gore. Sounds like a recipe for success if you ask us.

Dead Island will feature a whole army of undead nasties, from the lurching, moaning classic species from George Romero's movies, to the fast-moving monstrosities like those in the 2004 remake of Romero's Dawn of the Dead.

All controlled by a planned AI system (or rather an 'Advanced Artificial Life System' as developer Techland would have it) that will create spontaneous individual and group behaviour.
