Comic-Con attendees will be able to preview and play the following Square Enix titles:

    --  DEAD ISLAND(TM) - In Deep Silver's hotly anticipated action title, the
        lush island paradise of Banoi truly is a holiday destination with
        everything - including a lethal zombie outbreak.
    --  DEUS EX®: HUMAN REVOLUTION® - Eidos-Montreal brings back one of the
        most critically acclaimed franchises of all time with one of 2011's most
        highly anticipated games. Due out August 23, attendees can experience
        the multi-path, action RPG gameplay at the Square Enix booth.
    --  FINAL FANTASY® XIII-2 - Serah and Noel are desperately seeking
        Lightning in the next installment from Square Enix's all-star production
        team.
    --  WAKFU® - The latest role playing game from Ankama Studios (DOFUS)
        turned heads at this year's E3 show - now Comic-Con attendees get their
        chance to experience the world of WAKFU.

In addition to being able to get hands-on with the games, Comic-Con attendees will have the opportunity to gain a new perspective on both DEUS EX: HUMAN REVOLUTION and DEAD ISLAND. Two one-hour panels devoted to the games are available to attendees:

    --  Thursday July 21, 11:00 am: The World of 2027 in DEUS EX: HUMAN
        REVOLUTION: Join Eidos-Montreal community manager Kyle Stallock as he
        moderates a discussion between Mary DeMarle (lead writer,
        Eidos-Montreal) and Will Rossellini (CEO, MicroTransponder). The two
        will discuss the vision and moral landscape of transhumanism in DEUS EX:
        HUMAN REVOLUTION and compare it to current scientific advances in the
        field of bio-mechanical augmentation. Extended footage from the game
        will make its world debut at this can't-miss session in room 5A. There
        will be a Q&A session following immediately after the panel.
    --  Friday July 22, 7:30 pm: Find out what makes DEAD ISLAND's zombies tick
        as GamePro's science editor, Andrew Groen, joins Dead Island writer
        Haris Orkin, Harvard psychiatrist and author of The Zombie Autopsies,
        Dr. Steven C. Schlozman, author of The Zombie Survival Guide Max Brooks,
        and UC Berkeley's neuroscience expert Brad Voytek to explore the
        misunderstood monsters in a panel that will be anything but dead simple.
        Shuffle to Room 8 to pick their brains.
