One Punch Mode - Everything You Need To Know (Dead Island: Definitive Edition)

NOTE: This video also applies to the Definitive Edition of Dead Island: Riptide.
This video covers everything you need to know about One Puch Mode in the Definitive Edition of Dead Island, including what it does, how it works, and how to activate it in the first place.

[@dan_loeb]

it's based on a fan mod, fist of the dead star, (referencing the fist of the north star anime) they call it one punch mode (a reference to another anime, one punch man) it's a tribute to a glorious fan mod that makes the game amazing.

[@ColossalKiwi]

This is correct!

[@easyps331]

ColossalKiwi one

[@easyps331]

ColossalKiwi 1 punch is shit I have all modded guns m60

[@AlphaZeroX96]

Wrong. It's based off a cheat in GTA SA.

[@twofaced4923]

I actually had modded brass knuckles on the xbox 360 version that I got from a guy on multiplayer. It was practically the same as this mode but it sent everything and anything flying!

0:51 - Daaamn, I had no idea it was so cartoonishly OP like this. Looks hilariously satisfying sending walkers flying off the map with 1 hit. I'll have to try this one out after finishing normal game.

[@iceninekills1156]

They aren’t walkers

[@zzodysseuszz]

You shoulda seen dead island riptides super kick. John used to have the ability to send his enemies flying with his running kick but they patched it for no fucking reason even though it was the most fun part of the game

[@VegitoBlackityBlack]

[@jonathanfisher2085]

Hey i just got it for ps4 and I just wanted to say thank you I never would have noticed it I really do appreciate these kind of videos have a good one happy gaming

[@drakodrizzt7795]

Old but gold! thanks for letting me know everything I needed to know about OPM in 2021. Starting Riptide for 3rd time to replay and old jewel and find out about this mode just know. Thanks to you I haven't done something stupid hehe.

[@bettywood4173]

It is not showing up I'm in single player

[@DEADISLANDSTHEGOAT]

​@@bettywood4173do you have the definitive edition of Dead Island/Riptide? if not, you can't do one punch mode.

[@MariaIsabellaZNN]

Oh so that's what it does. I used it to play through the Ryder campaign simply because I wanted to get through it very fast but I feel it wasn't even necessary. Ryder campaign is chock full of ammo so I can just shoot everything.

[@darthvaderthegamecat]

Also what you forgot to mention is your kick range is heavily increased, but non the less loved the video, I'm a huge huge fan of zombie games and the genre, your KZbin channel is great for any zombie craving fans like me, keep up the good work!

[@ColossalKiwi]

Oh yeah, I did forget to mention that. I remember planning on saying that in the video but it must have slipped my mind when recording.

[@cheatox1]

He forgot that ?! Lol . It had not to be said LOL

[@KaeganThornhillTheCyberRaven]

I like to call this "Fist of The North Star" mode.

It’s from a mod that use to reference that lol

[@razoblicavanje4231]

I already beat this game in normal mode, now is revenge time! Yeah. Good narration, nice detailing. Thanks

[@mikekonicek7862]

So was wondering if the not affecting weapons thing does that include knuckle dusters?

[@GG_Nowa]

I only got this game today and this mode looks like a great laugh.

[@tb303wpf1]

Just got it for Xbox One X, and I saw the option for One Punch Mode. The graphics look sick in 4k on the Xbox. So I'll be playing this for a few days now. Cheers for the video!

[@nickforest7816]

I have dead island special editon but when picking a character to play as there was no option to play in one punch mode do I have the wrong version of the game or what the game play of this video looks like the same game I have

[@DeadGhost307]

You need to play on DE on PC or Xbox one or Ps4​@@nickforest7816

[@bencromie]

THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!

[@ironkid64gaming33]

Can you only unlock it after completing the game? I'm on occasion and I don't have the option

[@stevensmith6410]

You should be able to play one punch mode online it would be alot of fun if 4 players playing together on one punch mode

[@andrewwilson5686]

anyone feel free to answer. what I wanna do is play one punch mode first, beat it, use that character in new game plus. I'm just curious if one punch will be able to be turned off once going into new game plus mode

[@ColossalKiwi]

Nah, I don't think that's possible. If you create a character in One Punch Mode you can never leave One Punch Mode.

[@ColossalKiwi]

Yes, you can play One Punch Mode in Riptide. No, if you die you don't have to restart from the beginning.

[@adamsanchez1805]

One punch man opening theme is just playing in my head as I'm watching this video. Lol

[@knuckels5187]

So,.... can you get this character transfert to dead Island riptide? (one punch not included then)

[@g1g3l]

Well then. And I thought one punch mode was like a hardcore mode, something like OHKO (One Hit Knock Out). Well this is hardcore in other ways

[@destroyer-cu8if]

Hey fun fact with the chainsaw you can knock down thugs by holding the thrust

[@theinfamousmrsleep]

*ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH!!!!*

[@amariebrown4024]

How you do one punch mode I can't do that I need to hear that slow I need to hit them slow

[@albinbabu902]

Really helped me out...thanks!

[@terrancestapleton3859]

So there is no mode like this in the original versions of dead island and riptide?

[@coalexandru4417]

How to do i activate it? I have definitive edition and i dont know

[@darkmatterxd6743]

One punch mode have for dead island game of the year edition?

[@subscriberswithnoviewsorvideos]

Does this work for dead island just the normal one not riptide or this version just basic dead island

[@DDoig1]

It's never too late to make this video. I was wondering earlier today what this mode was. I have to say after seeing this video I can't see why someone would want to play it.

[@gabrielsage3425]

I played with a modder who gave me insane brass knuckles that basically give me one punch mode. I get infinite stamina and the zombies fly away. pretty lit

[@SaiintJHN]

Gabriel Sage you play ps4 if so could i get those?

[@gabrielsage3425]

The_Punisher_J56 I play on Xbox one and 360. actually it's my fury weapon. When your character goes into fury they pull out a special weapon that they can only use in fury mode. If you go into fury with one weapon slot open you can pick up a weapon in fury and they'll drop their fury weapon. Then you can pick it up once furys over and basically be in fury forever. Sam Bs weapon is the fury fist, it doesn't cost stamina to use and it launches zombies. That's what I have. You can transfer them between characters by giving the item to your friend and joining the game as another character and having them drop it for you. It's pretty sick.im not entirely sure if you can do it on the newer consoles. It might be patched

[@at1w]

Gabriel Sage I know one that you can do Sam B's Fury and trade it for a weapon and the brass knuckles can kill a zombie in two shots except a Ram, thug, and floater

[@LaLoK955]

Gabriel Sage you down to dupe???? I play Xbox one as well

[@jamesunlopez6831]

So this mode is like playing as John Morgan in Riptide?

[@ColossalKiwi]

Yeah, pretty much.

[@YaLocalGhost]

does one punch mode require any downloads

[@flute136]

you level a heck of a lot slower in this mode because the challenges are ingame objectives that actually reward decent xp as you play

[@ColossalKiwi]

It's true, although I'm pretty sure the XP from challenges has been dramatically decreased in the Definitive Edition. Even in normal mode

[@flute136]

[@thearesblade4092]

Old but gold game

[@imspaghetti5337]

can you do it in riptide and if you can how do you

[@ColossalKiwi]

Yes. It's just the same as the regular game; when creating a new character, select to play in One Punch Mode instead of normal mode. If you're importing a character from the first game that is already in One Punch Mode then they should still be in it once they are imported.

[@nicholasgarrison9643]

do you have to buy the mode I'm clueless

[@ryanmitchell3196]

Nicholas Garrison no if you have dead island definitive édition then when u start a new game on the left it says one punch mode

[@zKenchou]

Is this in riptide too? Or just the original definitive edition?

[@malikthomas4043]

Original

[@pokemonslayer3345]

It used to be in Riptide, but it was removed for some reason. The only way to still play One Punch Mode is if you already had a save file with it activated before it was removed.
