Dead Island 2: Post-game content
Once you have finished the main story, you can stay in LA and keep playing.
This includes the side quests and the Lost & Found missions you did not complete in your play through.
There is also co-op mode which will let you play with friends, and give you more reason to play.
If you do this you will keep your skills and weapons, but you can also start again and choose another character.
