If you’re a fan of Dead Island 2, you may have heard the rumors circulating about the game’s playable character Bruno and his striking resemblance to popular American rapper, Lil Pump.

Is Bruno Lil Pump in Dead Island 2?
It’s only natural for fans to speculate whether or not Lil Pump makes an appearance in the game, especially given how closely the two seem to resemble each other. However, despite the rumors, there is no evidence to support the claim that Lil Pump is featured in Dead Island 2.
Bruno’s official description on the Dead Island website paints a picture of a calculating and lethal street hustler with an impressive set of knife skills. Born and raised on the streets of Los Angeles, he was a master of pulling off heists on scammers and spammers before the zombocalypse changed everything.
While his backstory and abilities make for an interesting character, there is no mention of Lil Pump in his description or in the game’s promotional materials. The available information about Bruno’s innate skills, “Backstab” and “Rapid Reprisal,” doesn’t suggest any connection to the rapper at all.
“Backstab” sounds more like Tekashi69, the rapper turned informant, who also shares resemblance to Bruno.
So while fans can’t help but notice the resemblance between Bruno and Lil Pump, it’s clear that the two are not one and the same. It’s worth noting that games often take inspiration from real-life people and pop culture, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that those inspirations make an appearance in the final product.
