Frank West Returns
Dead Rising 4 tells about the return of Frank West, the photojournalist protagonist who starred in the first Dead Rising. After 16 years, West returns to Willamette, Colorado to investigate — and eventually solve — the zombie outbreak that is causing chaos and carnage in Willamette Memorial Megaplex Mall. He is more prepared and stronger this time — but so are the zombies.
Dead Rising 4 brings back the chaotic fun and tongue-in-cheek humor that made the Dead Rising franchise popular to fans. In this 4th installment, the biggest change will be the open world setting. Players can explore and wreak chaos on the wide expanse of Willamette Mall and surrounding areas.
The zombies this time are stronger and fiercer, with different undead classes from plodding slow walkers to super-fast runners. But Frank West has in his arsenal a wide variety of weapons and contraptions, which he can pick up or craft himself. As Capcom puts it, Dead Rising 4 "delivers a heart-pounding experience as players explore, scavenge and fight to survive in an epic open world sandbox."
