InDead Island 2, players are one of few survivors in LA, or Hell-A as the locals call it, after a massive Zombie outbreak. As players travel across Los Angeles, they will level up and unlock new abilities, weapons, and items that help them along the way. Those with the money can upgrade and mod their items to increase power or purchase weapons from Traders. Furthermore, players have discovered a handy duplication glitch that gives them more money and XP significantly faster.
Story-wise, the main goal inDead Island 2is to escape the city and destroy any zombies in the way. This gets harder to achieve the further into the main missions players go, and they will need serious ammunition to withstand some of the Zombie variants. The best way to strengthen their character and arsenal is with a lot of cash and a high level for more weapon upgrades and Skill Cards. So, this guide covers everything players need to know to use the duplication glitch for double the cash and XP inDead Island 2.

The duplication glitch to get extra cash inDead Island 2is available on both PC and console, and while there are different methods for both, they have a common prerequisite. It is only possible while in a co-op session, so players musteither Join a friend’s match or a Public sessionusing the online multiplayer features. The way the glitch works is that it allows players to duplicate weapons and items, so they can sell them for money.
Duplication Glitch on PC and PlayStation
Here are the steps to activate the duplication glitch inDead Island 2on PCto get more cash.
Players who want to use theDead Island 2duplication glitch on PlayStationwill have to take a different route. See below for the steps:
With the PC/PlayStation save file backed up, Go ahead and boot up the game and join a co-op session. Once it has started, players can drop all the weapons from the inventory they want to duplicate. After dropping weapons, exit the game and return to the Local save file folder or the USB. Copy and paste the original Save File into the application folder. Finally, startDead Island 2back up, and all the weapons players dropped will still be in their inventory, and they can pick up the ones they dropped earlier.
Players can then sell all the extra weapons for cash to a Trader. They can do this as often as they want as long as they are backing up the save file to replace it in the folder.
Another duplication glitch inDead Island 2helps players level up fast. This one differs from the money glitch in that it is much simpler to carry out and affects the Zombies that spawn rather than weapons. There are many moments inDead Island 2’s missions where players are forced to attacka large horde of Zombiesto complete an objective. These battles are a great way to earn tons of XP by mowing down many Zombies in one go around.
The way the glitch works is at any point during a main mission, players can die or quit the game and respawn with thesame amount of ammoand Med Packs they started with. They don’t lose any XP they earned before dying or leaving. The Zombies also respawn, so players can kill them again and get even more XP. Then, they can repeat this process as many times as they want.
In many games, when players die, they either drop items, pick back up where they left off with the same enemies dead/alive, or don’t respawn with ammo andhealth if they used it all. So, there essentially aren’t any significant consequences of death inDead Island 2, and players can exploit this glitch to get stronger faster without having to move through the storyline as quickly.
Dead Island 2is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
