Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster achieves exactly what it set out to do—but maybe that's not enough
We're finally back, baby! Dead Rising is a Capcom gem and a true original, but boy did the publisher fumble it after the original. Heavily inspired by George Romero's Dawn of the Dead, Dead Rising would be arguably the last masterpiece from Capcom production genius Keiji Inafune (it was released in 2006—Inafune worked on a variety of other projects subsequently, but left in 2010) and was a cutting-edge technological feat with that '80s/'90s arcade DNA running right through it: something old and something new, all at once.
