It's been a long time since we all got our first real taste of a 3D world where stomping zombies in their thousands was possible, but Dead Rising has been selling well ever since. It may well be making a comeback at E3 this year too and we have some screenshots purported to come from the game itself, as well as a little box art.

A fourth Dead Rising game wouldn't be much of a surprise reveal by Microsoft or Capcom, as Dead Rising 3 was a strong seller when the Xbox One was first released and the Walking Dead viewer numbers show not everyone is tired of zombies just yet. What is a surprise though, is that some are reporting Dead Rising 4 is a remake of the original game.

A NeoGAF leaker made claims that Dead Rising 4 will change the game's time and setting though, pitting original protagonist Frank West against the undead during the Winter. He'll also fight them in the area surrounding the mall, rather than just within it.

Four player coop addition doesn't seem too bizarre, considering the series' history for cooperative play. The rumour from sites like ThisGenGaming is that those fellow protagonists will be other characters from the game's past.

The leaked screenshots unfortunately don't show us much of the game, though we do have a zombie kill counter in the bottom left. We also see what looks like Frank riding a tricycle, though you have to hope this comes from an early demo, as the graphics don't exactly scream ‘contemporary.'

Information about the game is still pretty light, but we do expect Microsoft to reveal more at E3 when it kicks off in a week's time.

KitGuru Says: I haven't played a Dead Rising game since the original, way back when. Have you been keeping up with the series? If so, what would you like to see in the next one?

Any movie based on the Dead Rising franchise of zombie slaying games, was going to have to be a bit tongue in cheek. If it was even remotely accurate, it would need to feature a drug called Zombex, zaney psychopaths that need to be overcome and near slapstick levels of zombie killing. Fortunately, that looks to be what Sony's Crackle has done with the upcoming Dead Rising: Watchtower movie.

It just seems a shame that Frank West (played by Rob Riggle) isn't the protagonist.

He does show up, to lampoon everyone else's shocked reactions to zombies, as if no-one has ever seen a zombie movie in this universe, but here's far from the lead. Instead, we have Jesse Metcalfe playing “Chase,” another journalist of sorts who find himself part of a zombie outbreak that Zombrex, Dead Rising's zombie antidote, appears to have little effect against.

If only this was the whole movie

Other cast members include Meghan Ory (Once Upon a Time), Virginia Madsen, who you might remember from Candyman and Dennis Haysber, who has a lot of credits, but props to him for playing Frog in Axe Cop.

Much like the game, the story will revolve around the protagonists surviving the outbreak however they can, whilst trying to track down it source.

Dead Rising: Watchtower is set for release exclusively on Crackle on 27th March, with other streaming options coming in the future.

KitGuru Says: Well… at least Uwe Boll isn't directing it. Right guys?
