'Dead Rising 4' Will Feature Multiplayer, But Not In Campaign Mode, Here's Why
J RoseCapcom has confirmed that its latest title in the "Dead Rising" series, "Dead Rising 4," will include multiplayer. However, the feature is not applicable during the game's campaign mode.
The developer explained that while the game will not have co-op multiplayer during campaigns, "Dead Rising 4" will still feature multiplayer, this time as a separate four-player co-op mode.
During a Twitch live stream, "Dead Rising 4" producer David McAnerin explained why the team decided to leave out multiplayer mode in the game's main campaign.
"We want to make sure we really focus on telling Frank's story," McAnerin said. "We think he's a really interesting character. It's really exciting to bring him back."
The four-player co-op mode will give the spotlight to the other characters in the game, which is one of the highlights of the new mode. Players will get to know each character better in this mode, according to Gamespot.
So how does it work? First, players will start in a safe house, where they would need to prepare for a full two days' worth of zombie hordes, as well as completing a couple of missions on the side. The players would have to survive the two days to be successful.
Check out the gameplay video from IGN below.
"Dead Rising 4" will feature the return of journalist Frank West, the protagonist of the first "Dead Rising" game. The game will also take place in the same setting as the first title, Willamette, Colorado, a few years after the events of "Dead Rising 3."
The game will also be a timed-exclusive on the Xbox One and Windows 10 when it comes out later this year.
Capcom Vancouver said that "Dead Rising 4" will come to the Xbox One and Windows 10 first, which means that there is a chance that it will be released on other platforms like Playstation 4 and Steam once the timed-exclusivity is up.
