In Dead Island: Riptide, there are a number of mini-dungeons called ‘Dead Zones’ that can be found on the various maps of the island. There are a total of 13 of them, and in each Dead Zone, there is a Boss Zombie that you must defeat. These bosses are a good bit tougher than most others and usually have special abilities.
This guide will tell you about these boss zombies and how you can find them, as well as some additional information about them. The list is ordered in the same way as our Dead Zones guide, so Killer is found in the first dead zone on that guide, Quickdeath is found in the second and so on.
