The remastered versions of Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record will be hitting the PlayStation and Xbox store next month for the current gen consoles. The digital versions will be available prior to the retail disc versions, which will be available a little later.
With the big announcement that a fourth game is coming to the Xbox One and PC this holiday season, it seems only appropriate that the first two games would somehow find their way onto the current gen of consoles. First leaked over the weekend thanks to some PS4 trophy listings, Capcom released a statement to Eurogamer.com that Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record will all be coming to PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.
Dead Rising 2, Capcom's cooperative zombie thrashing sandbox game, is available as a free download for Xbox Live Gold members. Players will take the role of Chuck Greene and, well, another Chuck Greene as they battle battle through scores of zombies in the overrun casino complex of Fortune City.

Capcom is talking about a sequel to their latest successful zombie slayer, Dead Rising 2. Not only was DR2 a big hit, the XBLA exclusive Case Zero did very well, too. The publisher says that Case Zero has had over half a million downloads. I think making money is part of the Capcom business model, so expect more downloadable content to be heading your way.

If you pre-ordered Dead Rising 2 through Amazon.com you may be saddened to find out that the pre-order bonuses for it are missing in action. We've just received an email from the retailer telling us the bonuses, pictured above with ServBot Helmets and Chuck motorcycle jackets for your avatar, have been delayed indefinitely. Two weeks prior Amazon gave out $10 in credit because of, at that time, a short delay in receiving the codes. Now it appears your virtual goods will never see the light of day.
