Dead Rising 2 - Can You Survive?

Dead Rising 2Dead Rising 2 is classified as a survivor horror video game that includes RPG and action adventure twists to it. The game will be developed by Blue Castle Games which will in turn be distributed by its former developer Capcom. Though, the original developers of the game will still take part in creating this new Xbox 360 game. The game is said to be released anytime next year to be played in PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 console and Microsoft Windows platform.

The gameplay has not been altered and is still the same with its first version. The player will control the new lead character Chuck Greene and must fight off numbers of zombies that plagued the city. Missions must also be finished to go to the next level or avail special items. There will be new objects that will be used to attack zombies. The number of zombies has also been increased from 800 to around 6000. According to the Inafune, head of Research & Development at Capcom, the new lead character in this new Xbox 360 game will be more interesting as compared to the previous protagonist Frank West.

New and more interesting missions will be included in Dead Rising 2 but the original time management mechanic will still be maintained. Though the photography part of the original game will not be carried on to this new Xbox 360 game. Multiplayer option for this game will be available because according to Inafune single player will not be enough to enjoy this game.

The Multiplayer option will not be chosen as a mode but will be done through a reality TV show titled "Terror is Reality". In this game four players will play in the game show where in they have to kill as many undead as possible inside the arena. They will be presented with vehicles and several weapons such as chainsaw-equipped motorcycles. Another way to beat their competition is to use "dirty" tactics on them. This fictitious game show is being compared to the American Gladiators game show.
