It seems as if the original logo for Dead Island was deemed too graphic. They have now adopted a less "disturbing" logo.

We never censor or dictate in any way what type of content can be included within a game. However, a game's marketing materials are seen by an audience that is much broader than that which actually purchases the game itself, so we enforce industry-adopted guidelines as to what is suitable for inclusion in these materials.


Due to the guidelines depiction of what images are suitable, their original logo didn't comply.
