- Dead Rising is finally back in action thanks to the recent Deluxe Remaster.
- It looks like Capcom wants to expand the rest of the series in a similar way, as an official poll is asking fans which game they want to get the Deluxe Remaster treatment.
- The poll also asks if fans would prefer to have a full remake of the games instead of an interim update.
Capcom has shared a poll asking Dead Rising fans which game in the series they'd like to get the next “Deluxe Remaster” treatment, which surprisingly even includes Dead Rising 4.
There was a time when Dead Rising fans thought they would never see the series again and that Capcom would just focus on Resident Evil as its main zombie game. With the release of Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster earlier this week, that time has finally passed and it looks like the series may be back for good.
Capcom has already expressed in recent interviews that it's interested in expanding the series and possibly having more “Deluxe Remasters,” and it looks like that might actually happen. As pointed out by Redditor Wonderful_Mud5363 on the Dead Rising subreddit, Capcom sent out a poll after the release of the Deluxe Remaster asking fans what they wanted to see next.
The survey contains a series of questions about Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster marketing and how players found out about it, as well as more specific details about the remake's content, including what they liked best and even what their favorite costume is . Finally, the poll asks fans if they would like to see more Deluxe Remasters in the future.
The survey actually mentions a bunch of different Capcom franchises that could be getting Deluxe Remasters, including Dino Crisis, Onimusha, Power Stone, and Lost Planet. Capcom clearly sees a future with these releases.
After all that, the poll asks gamers who play Dead Rising in the series they would most like to see a Deluxe Remaster, including Dead Rising 2, Off The Record, Dead Rising 3 and, most surprising of all, Dead Rising 4. This suggests that all of these are a possibility, although there is also an option for an entirely new game in the series or a complete remake like the Resident Evil games.
While this survey doesn't necessarily mean that any of the other Dead Rising games will get the Deluxe Remaster treatment, it does suggest that Capcom sees it as a possibility and is considering it for the series. Considering how many fans want Dead Rising 2 to get a sequel upgrade, it's a very positive development that opens things up considerably.
