Is Dead Rising 2 still worth playing in 2026?
A sequel to Capcom's action game, Dead Rising 2 lets ex-biker Chuck Greene loose in a leisure complex overrun by thousands of zombies, to fight with wild combined weapons in a race against time to find his daughter's antidote. The cobbled-together weapon system, the staggering density of the hordes and the offbeat humour make the title's identity, which the Off the Record variant reinvents with Frank West. The stressful time management divides opinion. A good action game for fans of creative, zany zombie slaughter.
