Launch timelines for the three upcoming Dead Rising remasters have finally been announced by Capcom, weeks after the studio confirmed it would bring back the series’ earlier entries. And few will be surprised to hear Dead Rising , Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off The Record all head back to stores the very same day. So, uh, we hope you’re in the mood to kill some zombies.
Fans have been expecting a September debut for the upcoming Dead Rising remasters, thanks to early listings in the Xbox Store , but this marks the first time Capcom has publicly confirmed the timeline. All three Dead Rising remasters will return to the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live on Sept. 13. They’ll be available individually, at $19.99 a piece, or in a $59.49 bundle that will be marked down to $49.99 for pre-order customers. The original Dead Rising will also be released on Steam the same day; however, it’s not clear if we can expect updates for the Steam versions of Dead Rising 2 or Off The Record .
According to the U.S. PlayStation Blog, physical copies of Dead Rising and Dead Rising 2 will hit North American retailers on Sept. 27 . Unfortunately, Capcom has no plans for a retail version of Dead Rising 2: Off The Record , meaning anyone who’d hoped for a physical triple pack is out of luck. It sounds like we’re not going to see Dead Rising 3 on PS4 anytime soon, either. On the plus side, Capcom has confirmed that all of the upcoming Dead Rising remasters will include all costume DLC published after launch.
Dead Rising , Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off The Record are in development for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The upcoming remasters hit digital stores on Sept. 13. Physical copies of Dead Rising and Dead Rising 2 return to North American retailers on September 27.
