In the first Dead Rising, you took photos of zombies in order to break the routine of slaying them with the random objects you found at the mall. Dead Rising 2 didn’t quite have that, so the good people at Capcom decided that its time to bring it back. Dead Rising 2: Case West, an Xbox 360 exclusive piece of downloadable content will be heading over to the platform in the coming month or so. The DLC will feature co-op play. This means that Dead Rising 2’s protagonist, Chuck Greene will be joining West in his photo-slaying party.
An excerpt from Capcom-Unity Blog:
Following on from the success of Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, Dead Rising 2: CASE WEST will extend the zombie slaying antics of Dead Rising 2 by delivering brand new content and the return of a familiar face. Intrepid photojournalist and star of the original Dead Rising, Frank West, is back from covering wars and arrives in Fortune City to investigate Phenotrans and find proof of its involvement with the zombie outbreaks.
Set immediately after the events of Dead Rising 2 and available exclusively on Xbox LIVE, Dead Rising 2: CASE WEST sees Frank team up with Chuck Greene for some serious co-op action as the pair embarks on a brand new case set in the Phenotrans Facility on the outskirts of Fortune City.
Here Chuck and Frank will face new challenges and new enemies but will also have access to new weapons, items and the ability to create a number of new Combo weapons such as the janitor’s favourite, the ‘Zap & Shine’ and the ominous sounding ‘Reaper’. Just as in the full game, players will have the opportunity to rescue human survivors who have so far escaped the clutches of the zombie horde.
If you’re a fan of the first Dead Rising and you loved the second one, this DLC is a must get.
