Current Events > Possible new Dead Rising game info leaked (apparently)

NOT being developed by Capcom Vancouver. They wanted to move onto other projects, an entirely different studio is working on this one.

Began early production back in late 2015, CV was done with Dead Rising after 3 but Capcom had them shit out DR4 using almost entirely old assets for the ten year anniversary

Just called 'Dead Rising', for now. Not a reboot, but a complete return to form and almost a 'reset' of sorts for the franchise.

Puts you in a college town with three separate sectors, the college, the town, and a mall
Takes place 25 years after the original. You play as a photojournalism student named Jack who is infamous for his conspiracy theories that he writes in the college paper. He sees the outbreak as an opportunity to win big and get "the scoop"

VERY similar to the original Dead Rising. Time limit is back, and it is tough. Players will have to give up on certain side quests/pick and choose what to do. 100% in a single playthrough IS possible apparently, but only at higher levels.

Psychos are back, very similar to the first game. Focused more on normal people who have gone insane rather than flamboyant/sexualized/cartoony villains

No characters from previous games appear, however Frank West is apparently mentioned frequently
DR4 is not canon, at least in this game's timeline. Willamette is referenced heavily as still being gated off after the events of the first game

Photography makes a return, as well as the ability to question and interrogate certain characters. This is used in the story but is also used in side missions

Survivor escorts are back, but the AI isn't re****** like the original. Also they only take up about half of the side missions, the other half go into investigatory work and lore

Cool.

Kinda thought the cartoony villain-like psychos were what gave it charm, somewhat. I dunno though. Even though it's a different team I'm skeptical after 4.

It sounds like they are doing everything right

I just finished Dead Rising 3, and I loved it. Give me more of the same, and I'm sold.

I liked the cartoony Psychos. I just hated how they were made in DR4 since they just felt like basic enemies and didn't have any introductory + death scenes

DR4 is not canon

LMAO I was wondering if they'd go this route. I even made a topic on it on the boards wondering if they'd retcon the game. I was right.

Capcom went high up and then down with shit like SF5, DMC,RE6, DR4

And I think they actually don't like what they're doing that's why they're doing all this

Look at RE7, they're fixing SFV, new DMC, they even delayed their RE7 free DLC in a video because they weren't satisfied with the final product. They're trying to make up for their shit

I wonder if it's still Xbox exclusive? I'd love to play it but only have PS4 lol

I was wondering the same thing but if it is I should be able to play it on the PC.

Never had a chance to play though a DR game since I didn't have an HD tv during 1 lol.

I would like a Capcom Renaissance

They have some of the greatest franchises in video game history and they've been constantly fucking up lately, they need a return to form.
