Dead Rising was re-released for <a href=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/when-is-the-playstation-6-coming-out-release-date-and-leaks\/\">PlayStation<\/a> 4 and <a href=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/a-new-xbox-console-will-launch-in-2026-suggests-prolific-leaker\/\">Xbox<\/a> One (as well as Windows PC) in September 2016, and is playable on PS5 and Xbox Series X, but only because of backward compatibility. This is a version specific to the newest family of hardware.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In Dead Rising, players are West, who drops into the town of Willamette, Colo. to get a firsthand look at what the government isn\u2019t telling us about this zombie outbreak and infestation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He ends up in the Willamette Parkview Mall, where he loots stores and scavenges items to construct weapons and traps that help him survive a three-day undead onslaught until help arrives. Dead Rising\u2019s makers were very careful never to mention noted grindhouse thriller director George A. Romero or his cult hit Dawn of the Dead, but it\u2019s clear Dead Rising takes great inspiration from both.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Dead Rising was for a time a major franchise in Capcom\u2019s library, spawning a 2010 sequel for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 (starring a different protagonist, the motocross star Chuck Greene), then a stranger and more poorly received Xbox One console exclusive in 2013. Inafune, one of the original designers of the Mega Man franchise, left Capcom in 2010 shortly before Dead Rising 2\u2019s launch (Greene\u2019s yellow and black racing jacket, which says Ijiek, is an homage to the series creator) to start Comcept, the studio behind Mighty No. 9, a crowdfunded spiritual successor to Mega Man.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>When is Dead Rising: Deluxe Remaster launching?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Dead Rising 4 returned the show to Colorado in 2016 for PS4 and Xbox One, in a game that drew indifferent-to-middling interest. Its studio, Capcom Vancouver, was closed two years later.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In any case, the news that Frank West is back on assignment should excite older fans who remember him at the vanguard of something that today seems so clich\u00e9 \u2014 one compos mentis human against a brainless horde, since copied by Left 4 Dead; Call of Duty\u2019s Zombies mode (beginning with 2008\u2019s World at War); the Dying Light franchise and Days Gone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Dead Rising: Deluxe Remaster doesn\u2019t have a firm launch date, but should arrive later in 2024.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/dead-rising-remaster-release-date-capcom-xbox-playstation-pc-frank-west\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Frank West is back!
