Dead Rising: Reloaded

"We were very excited to see where the series had gone, but even we could see that it needed a refresh, a reset, a reboot. That's why we are very proud to present Dead Rising: Reloaded. It's going to provide that extra kick that the game needed, while arousing a sense of nostalgia in the hardcore fans and a sense of innovation among the gaming community as a whole. It's going to blow your f#&king minds" - Joe Nickolls: Studio Director, Capcom Game Studio Vancouver

Dead Rising: Reloaded is a reboot of the cult classic franchise, that innovates like never before while giving the classic fans some serious fan service. There are new psychopaths, old ones remastered, the return of combo weapons and vehicles, the return of Frank West and so much more. The game will be time delayed across multiple consoles. August 8th, 2022 on XBOX ONE, 90 Days later on Windows 10, 10 days after Windows 10 it will be on Steam, and then a whole year after XBOX ONE, it will come to PlayStation 4. Rated R 18+.

Frank West:

Frank West returns as the primary protagonist and playable character of Dead Rising: Reloaded. T.J Rotolo returns as his voice actor, and his personality from the first game is back, if not just a little bit deeper than before, to make the story and the character himself more immersive.

Frank West is 32 years old, and is sporting his original haircut from the first game, where he has more hair than his more recent incarnations. However, he does retain his outfit from Dead Rising 4, now slightly altered. His Dead Rising 4 jacket and jeans return untouched, but he now sports a pair of aviators, black canvas skate shoes, black fingerless gloves, and a bright blue and yellow Ijiek branded backpack (which serves as the Survival Guide, returning from Dead Rising 3).

Frank's personality is almost ripped from the first game, which accompanies his original voice actor coming back very nicely as well. He is a little bit darker, and a little bit more aggressive though (but only ever so slightly).

The Main Menu of Dead Rising: Reloaded

When you arrive on Dead Rising's main menu, it will display a menu very similar to the original as far as the background goes, with hundreds of shambling zombies piling through the gates to enter Inafune Resort, similar to how they did with Willamette Mall in the first game, Fortune City Arena in 2 and Uranus Zone in Off the Record. However, the actual options are much more Dead Rising 3-esque.

The options go down the screen, just like the DR3 menu, on the left of the screen. Going in descending order, these are the main menu options.

The Game Modes of Dead Rising: Reloaded

7 Day Mode: I always liked the unique feel that Dead Rising used to have with the timer, and how you only had a limited time to do things, and it made the game feel more real. That what kind of disgruntled me about 3, and now with 4, that the timer has been ruined. I also know that people like the additional freedom and flexibility 3 offers. We'll compromise... across 7 days. The classic timer from DR1 and 2 is back (x12 speed), but now with the same amount of missions, instead of being spread across 3 to 5 days, it is now done across 7, giving you more room to breath, and time to relax and mess around. The missions have gone back to being scoops, and they are divided into two categories. Cases (main missions), and Side Scoops (side missions). 1 Player Local, 1-2 Players Online

Sandbox Mode: Just like Sandbox Mode from Off the Record. Complete challenges, find collectibles, or mess around with a friend/friends. A new survival option when starting up a new sandbox save allows you to play Infinity Mode. All of your levels and collectibles carry over between Sandbox and 7 Day Mode. 1 Player Local, 1-4 Players Online

Online Competitive Multiplayer: Scavenge the map for weapons, food, vehicles and armour, kill the enemy team, and complete the objective. Entering the Online option on the menu, will give you the option of trying to join a game of 7 Day Mode or Sandbox Mode, or starting up Online Competitive Multiplayer. You'll plays as one of the two teams (U.S Rangers or Survivors), in a battle for domination, across four modes and four on-disc maps. 0 Players Local, 2-8 Players Online -Capture the Queens -Search & Destroy -Team Evacuation -Free-For-All Evacuation
