Dead Island is a survival horror first-person shooter, developed by Techland for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The main weapons in the game appear to be improvised melee weapons à la Condemned, but there are a few firearms scattered about.
The following weapons were used in the videogame Dead Island:
A Smith & Wesson Model 15 appears in the game with a 4 inch barrel. Most of the characters operate the weapon purely in Single Action, only rapid firing causes it fire in double action. The character Purna, who carries her own personal revolver fires it almost exclusively in Double Action mode while her "Fury" is activated. It shares ammunition with the other pistol type weapons but cannot be modified.
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS appears ingame as the "Pistol".
The weapon in the game has a 15 round magazine and somehow shares ammunition with other "Handgun" type weapons such as the Desert Eagle and the two revolvers. Modding the weapon with a certain element type mod (such as Electric or Fire) adds a colored compensator to the end of the barrel that somehow magically allows the gun to fire elemental bullets. States such as "Puny" or "Medium-Speed" refer to it's overall level in power.
Desert Eagle Mark I
The Desert Eagle Mark I appears ingame as the "Heavy Pistol".
The weapon in the game has a 9 round magazine and uses the same ammo from other Handguns. Most likely the .357 Magnum variant, modding the weapon with a certain element type mod (such as Electric or Fire) adds a colored compensator to the end of the barrel that somehow magically allows the gun to fire elemental bullets. States such as "Puny" or "Medium-Speed" refer to it's overall level in power and statistics.
Taurus Raging Bull
The Taurus Raging Bull is called the "Magnum" in-game. In-game it does not have the red safety grips and instead features a wooden grip. Like the revolver it fires in Single Action and also shares the same ammo pool as other pistols.
Shotguns
Franchi SPAS-12
The Franchi SPAS-12 appears in-game as the "Medium Speed Shotgun"
Mossberg 590 Cruiser
The Mossberg 590 Cruiser appears in-game as the "Short Shotgun". Another shotgun variant, it still holds 8 shots like the other Shotguns but is much more powerful at the cost of speed and range.
Remington 870/TOZ-194
The Remington 870 /TOZ-194. An unknown make of shotgun, likely a combo weapon is a mash of multiple different shotgun types with a bizarre sight arrangement. It carries 8 rounds in-game and is one of the weakest levels of Shotgun.
The AKS-74U appears in-game as the "Auto-Rifle", carries 30 rounds a magazine and has a high rate of fire. Different coloured magazines represent elemental bullets and are apart of various elemental weapon mods.
AR-15 Carbine (Modified)
The AR-15 Carbine. Known as the "Single-shot Rifle" in-game, it appears as an AR-15, like a Colt AR-15 Sporter SP-1. Holds 30 rounds in a 20-round magazine and sometimes has a wire stock or reflex sight. It has a flat top receiver but uses flip-up iron-sights.
M16 (Modified)
The M16. Called the "burst rifle" in-game, it fires 4 round bursts or single shots with taps to the trigger. It's modeled with a 20 round magazine yet holds 30 rounds. Sometimes it features a reflex sight.
Mounted Weapons
Browning M1919
A Browning M1919 machine gun can be seen emplaced on the balcony of City Hall.
