Added by CarinthThe Weapon Wheel serves as the quick inventory in Dead Island.

The wheel shows the available weapons in the character's quick inventory in a circular pattern, with the statistics on the currently selected weapon and its name in the center. Each weapon's icon is either bordered by its durability gauge for melee weapons, accompanied by its ammo count for firearms, or the number of them the player has for projectiles.
To use a sort of weapon toggle system on the weapon wheel while holding the primary weapon of choice, selecting onto a second weapon, such as a firearm or projectile, then pressing the toggle button will bring the player back to the weapon they had before. This works well with firearms as the player can gain a vast amount of range before such enemies close in towards them, so switching immediately to the melee weapons gives the player a chance to hack and slash or beat and bash their way out of a deadly situation.
Initially, the player has only 1-2 slots available. More slots will open automatically as the player levels up. Furthermore, if the player is doing a quest in which they have to escort a survivor, it will display the health status of the survivor.
However, if the player decides to change their weapons in their quick inventory, they must go on to the inventory menu by pressing I on a PC, or the Up button for Xbox and PS3 players. There is still no known way to quickly switch weapons from the inventory to the weapon wheel.
