Pretty much, right now on the livestream they're talking about how while it was originally approached as a remaster, they definitely put more love into it. So it almost does feel more like a remake, which is why they're going with calling it "deluxe remaster."

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Graphics and UI have been totally remade, but the game keeps the original's gameplay and animations. So kind of like a cross between a remaster and a remake.

Thanks, so is it being made internally at Capcom?
Although I do find it weird that they were originally just making a simple remaster of a game that was already remastered, maybe they realized that and decided that they had to put more effort into it?

I hate that now it looks like is normal to release first digital and after 1/2 months the physical ......

This probably means a new Dead Rising is being made, and this remake is just a way to get the RE Engine ready for it.

I’m glad they did because they added some modern features in regards to the camera and controls.
NPC AI improvements are a good thing too.

Game of the year right there. I adore Dead Rising and this looks like everything I could’ve asked from a remake. Will pre order digital and buy the physical version as well.

I’ll buy digital first to play it and physical for collecting purposes.

Dead Rising 3 was cool but may as well have been a different series

This is basically a full-on remake, surprised they're calling it a remaster.

Looks like they're lifting the zombie assets straight from the RE2/3 remakes, which is fantastic cause they're gonna be in a density tenfold of those games here.

This is what I needed to see.
Thats the degree of graphical change needed to justify calling it a remake.
But did they do anything with the level design?

No Switch version? Fuck!
I'll hold out hope that the switch version announcement is being held back to be in the first round of launch titles for switch 2.
Seriously one of the absolute GOATs. I'm so happy with this news.

At this point, I'm expecting everything not announced for Switch will eventually be announced on Switch 2, especially if it's from a Japanese developer.

The utter disrespect that Dino Crisis doesn't even get a bonus costume .. on its 25th anniversary to boot

Looks really good. I only really played a demo of Dead Rising. I have it on PC, but never tried it.
the gameplay imo was so rock solid it's one of those games that would still be fun even with bad graphics, the timer gameplay added a lot of replay value when going back on other play throughs. i played through all the remasters last gen and all the og games and dlcs. But i dropped off after DR3 and own DR4 but still haven't played it.
are those the og remaster vs new or the og og? the level design can't really be changed as its integral to the game play and timing.

OG Remaster. OG OG didn't look anywhere near as clean lol. It was 720p with early / no AA.

Tbf youre not missing much, dr4 was just a worse version of 3
Though tbf i preferred 3 over the the rest of the series as i dont like time limits (the only game that got that right imo was majoras mask)

DR3 was a major disappointment for me, when it launched with that gen i was super over hyped and was eexpecting this incredible sea change in the meta of the game and thought it was going to be this super survival horror, gritty first person-style experience where just one zombie would be an excruciating experience and getting through the mall i envisioned as way more dark, realistic and immersive, sadly it just ended up being just the same old campy hundreds of zombies on screen with the horrible hit stop animations, and shallower of a story.

I liked it because it reminded me of Return of the Living Dead, bosses with seven deadly sins theme, cool combo weapons, good regular weapons, decent driving options, and a great sandbox open world. Only downer was that Nick was kind of a pussy in cutscenes. The DLCs were awesome too.

Agreed, it is.
But that doesn't keep them from making changes.
Think of RE4. The village is more or less the same from the original but with more verticality and more efficient use of space and assets.

Beat you to that by 10 months! I wonder if they'll keep this achievement in the game though:How the years have flown by

Nice !
I bought the game day one and completed it but I hadn’t re-subscribed to XBL then. I was back online for that true ending play through tho, I suspect that’s why some of my other achievements don’t have the unlock date

Day 1.
I still remember going to the parking garage farming kills for the zombie genocider achievement by running them over and over and over.
Great game

How do you get it done? There is not enough hours between just the main missions.
