Dead Rising 2 to rise up thousands of zombies more

Having some 500 plus zombies was fun, but this number just won’t cut it anymore for the sequel of Dead Rising. Capcom’s just not happy with a small legion of undeads anymore, and so for Dead Rising 2, they’re upping the count to thousands.

Having some 500 plus zombies was fun, but this number just won’t cut it anymore for the sequel of Dead Rising. Capcom’s just not happy with a small legion of undeads anymore, and so for Dead Rising 2, they’re upping the count to thousands.

Nope, that’s not all of them.

Keiji Inafune established the guesstimated number over at Capcom’s investor relations site. “In Dead Rising 2, literally thousands of zombies will appear on-screen,” he warmly reassured.

“The world in this game features a town filled with casinos that resembles a district in Vegas. You’ll see a scene where you get on a motorcycle and race down a Strip Street literally crawling with zombies. This scene shocked more than a few members of the press.”

Japan will probably see this fresh new batch of hordes later this year, while the rest of the world just might have to wait it out a little bit more.
