Capcom has released the first gameplay footage of Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster in a new ‘Director’s Report’ video on YouTube, which also confirms that the game will feature an alternate costume for Frank West to make him look like his 2006 counterpart.
Seen below, the video touches on the various improvements that the remaster makes over the original version of Dead Rising, including the character visuals, which have been completely overhauled with new motion capture. In short, it looks a lot more realistic now, while textures and environments have also been spruced up greatly to bring the game up to modern standards.

Dead Rising was originally released for the Xbox 360 back in 2006 and later arrived on the PS3 and Wii. The game follows Frank West, a photojournalist, who gets caught up in a zombie outbreak in a shopping mall in the fictional Colorado town of Willamette. The game features multiple endings and a 72-hour time limit, where you must finish the main story within that limit to uncover the source of the undead pandemic.
Capcom has announced that Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster will launch on September 19, 2024 for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
