PlayStation Home Playing Host To More Creeps

PlayStation Home's Central Plaza area will soon be host to brain-dead automatons, in what may or may not be a break from the usual. Deep Silver and Sony are teaming up in a special takeover event, which will transform the area into a Dead Island-themed tropical resort. Players will be able to check out 10 new minigame challenges, and those who complete 'em all will get access to an exclusive in-game item: exploding meat.

The challenges encourage co-op play between up to four players, who will have to build items and stave off zombie attacks. The zombies are relentless and awful, giving visitors a glimpse of what it's typically like to be a female user of the Home platform.

In addition to earning the exploding meat, players can also score an exploding zombie outfit if they preorder the game from a special Dead Island kiosk within Home.

Look for Dead Island on the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC on September 6.
