A swanky new gaming feature announced by Amazon at Gamescom will let you interact with Dead Island 2 using your voice. This feature is known as Alexa Game Control, and it pretty much does what it says on the tin.

With Alexa Game Control in use, players will be able to control aspects of their game via Amazon’s voice activated software. Amazon states that the feature will work with “any microphone or headset connected to their PC or console,” and therefore “players do not need an Echo device to play games with their voice”.
