Key Takeaways

- A recent survey put out by the company asked gamers if they’d like to see future Dead Rising releases.

As a die-hard zombie slaying survivor who’s been through the chaos of Fortune City and the Willamette Parkview Mall, I can’t help but feel my adrenaline pumping at the prospect of Capcom teasing a remaster of Dead Rising 2. Frank West might have been my guide in the first game, but Chuck Greene with his yellow jacket and motorcycle is the one who truly captured my heart.
There are signs that Capcom could be planning a modern update for the game “Dead Rising 2”, similar to the recent “Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster”. The initial journey of Frank West through the zombie-filled Willamette Parkview Mall, which was reintroduced on contemporary gaming platforms with an updated look on September 19 and received generally favorable reviews, has left fans speculating if Capcom might also upgrade later games in the series, such as “Dead Rising 2” from 2010.
In Dead Rising 2, the main character was changed from Frank to Chuck Greene, a motorcycle rider, and introduced a feature that lets players create stronger weapons by combining items for self-defense against the zombie crowds in the city modeled after Las Vegas, known as Fortune City. In 2011, Capcom launched a revamped version of this game called Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, which revisited the initial storyline but with Frank West as the central character. Recently, Jas Patrick, who voices Frank West in the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, encouraged fans to ask for an updated version of Off the Record through a survey distributed by Capcom this month.
The initial Dead Rising 2 was among the choices gamers could select in a poll that sought their opinions on whether to develop more Dead Rising games after the launch of the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster. Some key individuals involved in the remaster, including director Ryosuke Murai, original game director Yoshinori Kawano, art director Satoshi Takamatsu, and producer Kei Morimoto, recently spoke with Inverse magazine about this possibility, hinting at a potential remaster of Dead Rising 2.
Capcom Teases Dead Rising 2 Remaster
Morimoto suggests that the remaster of Dead Rising 2 will depend on how well the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster performs. However, he also mentioned it as a possibility and stated that Capcom would consider it if they find a suitable time when they could sell it effectively. Earlier, Capcom had expressed their desire to rejuvenate the seemingly forgotten Dead Rising series post the release of the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, which has led to an increase in sales for earlier games like Dead Rising 2.
Many players continue to view Dead Rising 2 as one of the standout games in the Dead Rising series. If Capcom’s Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster performs well enough, it might be the game chosen for a revamp next. Whether or not fans will get another chance to don Chuck Green’s iconic yellow jacket and hack through a zombie outbreak with the same refined quality as the original Dead Rising remains uncertain, but there is definitely excitement among fans about the possibility.
