London based indie developer Creaky Corpse revealed that Dead Frontier 2 will be available on Steam Early Access starting August 31st.
It will be a free-to-play title like the first Dead Frontier, though that one was browser based. This one, on the other hand, will be a fully-fledged survival horror MMO played from a third-person, over-the-shoulder perspective similar to Resident Evil 4 (or Resident Evil 2 Remake).
