Be Bad: Dead Island's Ryder White DLC

It's a frequent lament that we rarely get to play bad guys in an interesting way. There's another hope on the horizon, with the rather good Dead Island announcing some new major DLC. Ryder White is a whole new angle on the game's story, where you play as the titular character - the game's main baddie. Which is a splendid idea, if it's done right. It's a new single-player campaign, where you'll apparently get to understand White's motivations for his actions, as well as see him as a loving husband and military man. Techland say it'll be "several hours" long, and add in a couple more weapons. We've some screenshots of it below.

It's due out on the 1st of February, and will cost you £8 via Steam.
