Overall, it's still a ton of fun if you aren't looking for something grounded in reality. Multiplayer is present, though not exactly a big draw, and the presentation is fine on the base console, with the camera sometimes getting in the way when you're in tight spaces or surrounded by a horde and can't see who you're hitting. The weapons get wackier thanks to the Christmas theme in play, while the robotic suits can feel overpowered even though they only last for a short time. The gameplay eschews a time limit in favor of a more open world, with tons of collectibles to find and the ability to gain experience to power up Frank in a multitude of ways. The story may be more serious than before, but Frank's ability to crack wise adds to the levity and makes the photojournalist more likeable. We reviewed the Xbox One version of the game a year ago, and the PS4 version is practically the same as far as the base game goes. It turns out that the zombie outbreak is once again happening in Willamette, and there is reason to believe that government involvement can be proven. Now living as a night school teacher under a new alias, he gets a visit from the ZDC. The investigation goes wrong, leaving Frank to take the rap for a domestic terrorist attack while his student gets away unscathed. It turns out that the government is continuing to experiment on zombies and trying to make them more advanced. After a bad dream related to his first zombie experience, he gets a call from one of his students, who dupes him into going to a relatively small and mundane military base.
Much like Rise of the Tomb Raider did in 2016, the game finally arrived on the PS4 at a steal since it has all of the previously released content plus a wild new extra thrown in for good measure.ĭead Rising 4: Frank's Big Package starts with Frank West as a professor of journalism, discredited by most publications for trying and failing to tie the zombie outbreak to government involvement. Then again, the series has enjoyed a sporadic existence on the Sony consoles, while it was something of a marquee series on the Xbox family. Coming from a third-party publisher as big as Capcom, that exclusivity seems weird when the bigger install base on consoles is the PS4.
For about a year, Dead Rising 4 enjoyed exclusivity status on the Xbox One and PC.
