Publisher Deep Silver is releasing a Game of the Year Edition of the zombie resort game Dead Island next month.

The release will cost $29.99 and bundles the "Ryder White," "Bloodbath Arena," and "The Ripper" DLC packs.

Thanks to the sole praise of GameCritics.com, Deep Silver was able to justify the "Game of the Year" status despite mixed reviews. Our Matt Liebl called the game "fun," but "a little rough around the edges." What do you think?

Look for Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC on June 26.

Deep Silver recently denied rumors of a sequel.
