Capcom Confirmed More Dead Rising Games
Capcom has shared good news for Dead Rising fans, the studio will expand franchise after the release of Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster.
Dead Rising Franchise is Back
The Dead Rising community has been begging for a new entry for eight years now, with 2016’s Dead Rising 4 being the last installment in the popular series. While fans won’t be getting a new sequel anytime soon, Capcom did reveal a remaster of the original Dead Rising back in June. With updated graphics, new quality of life improvements, revamped controls, a new UI, and more, the remaster is aiming to take the 2006 classic and introduce it to a whole new market on the current generation of consoles.
In a new interview with IGN, Capcom not only confirmed who would be voicing Frank West in Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, but also noted that it wants to continue expanding the Dead Rising IP once its upcoming remaster has been released. When asked by the outlet if Capcom has any intentions of developing more Dead Rising remasters or possibly even a new entry, the studio said it has “hopes of expanding” the popular series in the future. While Capcom didn’t specify if that would come in the form of a brand-new game or another remaster, it did note that all of its efforts are currently focused on promoting Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, which is set for release on September 19.
With the Dead Rising sales, it’s not a surprise that Capcom intends to continue franchise even further. The last game, Dead Rising 4 received generally unfavorable reviews from players, there’s a strong chance that Capcom will stick to remaking some of the franchise’s older titles, such as Dead Rising 2, which will be fourteen years old this September.
Capcom has proved their success with recent released remake and remaster games such as Resident Evil 4 Remake. The studio has also achieved other big releases such as Street Fighter 6, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, Exoprimal. But with the Resident Evil series receiving so many successful remakes, it’s hard not to believe that Capcom will take the same route with the Dead Rising series moving forward.
