Dead Rising gets January release on Games on Demand
The dead rise - again
Microsoft has confirmed, via Major Nelson, that Dead Rising will be the next game to be added to the Xbox 360's Games on Demand download service on January 26th.
Capcom's homage to George Romero is getting a new lease of life on Games on Demand ahead of the release, later this year, of Dead Rising 2.
The sequel will take place in Fortune City, a city not unlike Las Vegas, which is home to the newest fad in reality TV - Terror is Reality. This show pits regular folk in a gladiatorial contest against hordes of zombies.
In the game, players will assume the identity of Chuck Green, a former motocross champion and contestant on Terror is Reality. As well as being encouraged to spill gallons of undead blood, players will get the opportunity to uncover the real reason why Chuck has entered this savage new bloodsport.
