- Stacey Forsythe - some kind of "zombie rights" activist.
[edit] Development
Dead Rising 2 was announced on February 9, 2009, confirming earlier rumors, and a viral video of the game's existence. The developers Blue Castle Games will be working with Keiji Inafune, the game's producer and Capcom's global head of research and development, along with other Dead Rising team members.
[edit] Gameplay
The gameplay, based on a viral video, remains similar to Dead Rising. The player will be required to face off hordes of zombies while accomplishing specific missions. The game will include several new objects that can be used to attack the zombies, including slot machines and a giant hamster ball.
[edit] Story
It will take place several years after the events of Dead Rising; the virus outbreak that created the zombies was not contained and has spread across the United States. The player will have to fight zombies in "Fortune City", a gambling paradise inspired by Las Vegas. Early screen shots depicted a new, blond protagonist as the playable character. Since then, his name has been revealed to be Chuck Greene. Whether or not Frank West will return and be playable is unknown; Isabela Keyes' name is mentioned in the viral video.
