Dead Rising Remaster is a re-release of the zombie action game with a third-person view and horror elements. The main character of the game is journalist-photographer Frank West, who finds himself in the fictional town of Willamette, Colorado, USA. The city is overrun by hordes of the infected. One of the last safe places is a huge shopping center, where zombies also managed to get into. The hero needs to save survivors, destroy the infected and psychopaths, solve the mystery of the incident — all this 72 hours before the armed forces arrive in the city and destroy both the living and the dead.
