7 Ways To Earn Money Fast In Dead Island 2


In Dead Island 2, the player’s chosen slayer will be fighting off hordes of zombies in the Hell-a apocalypse, but to truly make it out of the city, they will need to make some cash while they do it. Cash is used for things like repairing, upgrading, and level-matching weapons, as well as buying needed supplies, weapons, or blueprints from traders. This allows players to keep their favorite weapons on pace with their character’s level.


Slayers in Dead Island 2 have a lot to keep them busy, but they will need cash as they attempt to find a doctor or someone who can get them and their group of survivors out of Hell-a. In addition, it will take a lot of zombie-killing to get players to the end of the game, and they will need good, in-shape weapons to do it. So keeping a steady supply of resources on hand will suit everyone.

7 Kill As Many Zombies As Possible

As slayers wander around the neighborhoods of Hell-a, there will be many zombies waiting to be killed in Dead Island 2. When they are, some zombies will release loot. Many times this loot is a wallet that holds cash. Some players may not notice this at first, as wallets are picked up automatically if the player is in close enough proximity. However, players are getting cash from killing zombies, which is a positive side of playing the game as intended. Other times zombies will drop weapons, health items, or special items.

6 Selling Weapons

A trader will sometimes appear at various safe houses. Usually, Carlos is available at Emma Jaunt’s house at all times. When players have extra weapons, it might be worth selling some of them for extra cash. Dead Island 2 is not shy about throwing weapons at players, so sometimes storing most of your best weapons in Dead Island 2 in a locker and running out to loot a bunch to sell can be worth it. Of course, the higher the rarity, the more they sell for.

5 Complete Challenges

There are various challenges in Dead Island 2 that players complete mostly just by playing. These include killing a certain number of zombies with electric damage. Players can complete these challenges in stages, and each completion usually rewards the player with cash. Maxing out a challenge can give players a handsome sum, so pay attention to what challenges are available. This can also force players to try new weapons and techniques, but often these challenges are completed simply by playing the game.

4 Loot Everything

This might seem obvious, but it is common for players to walk into an area, kill the zombies, and move on. So taking some extra time to look around for any vanity cases, safes, suitcases, drawers, or closets is well worth it. While not every lootable object has cash, many of them do. And often, wallets have been abandoned by their now unfortunate and infected owners.

There is a glitch that players may be able to exploit by looting an area and immediately quitting and reloading into Dead Island 2, which can reset all the loot.

3 Completing Side Quests

While not every side quest in Dead Island 2 will come with a cash reward, many will. Moreover, side quests often provide opportunities for other cash grabs on this list, such as waves of zombies to kill, extra places to loot, and weapons that can be sold. So while the quest itself may not drop a cash reward, the act of completing it will give the players a nice sum. Moreover, side quests are often quite short, so there is not much time wasted.

2 Open Locked/Hidden Areas

Locked and hidden areas will take a bit more effort to get into but are well worth the hidden rewards. Often this includes cash but also blueprints, supplies, and weapons. An excellent example is the rooms at the Goat Pen that require finding the Goat Pen Masterkey. Once obtained, all the rooms will be accessible, and there is quite a bit of loot behind the locked doors. Locked safes are also well worth the effort of opening them and typically carry a hefty sum of cash specifically.

1 Don’t Upgrade Everything

While adding new upgrades to every weapon in Dead Island 2 in a slayer’s inventory may be tempting, it is not worth the cash output. It costs a lot of money to repair, upgrade, and level-match a weapon. With that in mind, it is prudent to pick a few weapons that a player likes the most to keep around while selling or scrapping the rest. This does not earn money, but it saves a lot. And, of course, even in Dead Island 2, a penny saved is a penny earned.
