أعلنت شركة Capcom عن Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster، النسخة المحسنة من لعب البقاء الأصلية لجهاز Xbox 360، والتي ستأتي للمنصات الحديثة بعد فترة من الغياب.

لم تتم مشاركة تاريخ الإصدار للعبة، ولا منصات محددة، ومن المحتمل أن تصدر اللعبة على PlayStation و PC وكذلك Xbox، حيث كانت حصرية لمنصة Microsoft لفترة محددة قبل أن تصدر لمنصات أخرى.

أظهرت Capcom المشاهد الافتتاحية للعبة في العرض الموضح أدناه، مع توجه البطل فرانك ويست على المروحية إلى Willamette Mall. على الرغم من أن رسوم اللعبة تمت ترقيتها، إلا أن هناك تغييرًا آخر يأتي على ما يبدو لأنه يبدو الممثل الصوتي T.J. Rotolo لا يعيد تقديم دوره باعتباره المصور الذي يواجه نهاية العالم.

Capcom previously remastered Dead Rising when it released the HD version for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2016 to commemorate the series' 10th anniversary.

The game was originally released in 2006 as an exclusive for the Xbox 360, following freelance photojournalist Frank West as he heads to a small Colorado town infested with zombies and has three days to get the big scoop on what caused the outbreak.

While it was released early in the Xbox 360's lifespan it became a defining moment for the console due to it showcasing its technical power, with hundreds of zombies appearing on screen without framerate issues. The series is also known for its sandbox-style gameplay, where you could use almost anything as a weapon to fend off the undead.

The release of Dead Rising would spawn into a successful franchise, which consists of three sequels, the most recent being 2016's Dead Rising 4, two remakes, a litany of DLC expansions, and a few live-action films.

"Though Dead Rising may seem like a simple, mindless game when you first pick it up, it eventually reveals itself as a deeper experience," IGN said in our review of Dead Rising. "Tons of extras are packed into Willamette's shops. There are magazine power-ups and special drink mixes to be brewed, lots of clothing combinations, countless pictures to be taken, and plenty of NPCs to be saved."
