If you’ve played the original Dead Rising on Xbox 360, rest assured that the game’s signature core identity is fully intact, down to the snappiness of the original’s over-the-top character animations. Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster preserves the tone of the original, inspired by B-movie horror films with a dark sense of humor, yet doing it all with a self-serious tone. This first entry in the series is so beloved by Dead Rising fans for a reason.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster launches September 19, 2024! Pre-order now to receive 3 unique costumes, each of which have matching mall music!
