The Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster breathes new life into Capcom's undead hack n' slash classic, updating it in all the right ways.

Despite their obvious influence on Capcom's other zombie franchise, the tone and aesthetic of George Romero's films weren't fully captured in any of the studio's games until 2006's classic Dead Rising. Between its ham-fisted dialogue, over-the-top gore and action, and tongue-in-cheek satire of life in the 21st century, Dead Rising was destined to be a cult-classic much in the same way that films like Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead continue to be, cementing itself as one of the Xbox 360's earliest "must-have" exclusives. For many, Capcom's decision to polish up and re-release Dead Rising as the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is like getting a new 4K remaster of a favorite horror film, and Game Rant's recent hands-on with the title suggests that Dead Rising is the best it's ever been.
