“Besides the obvious Chinese censorship done (you need your head examined if you don't notice), it is pretty much a shinier polish of the original which is mostly good. But I'd rather they simply remastered the game…”

“Dead Rising Deluxe Remastered: The Absolute King of Zombie Sandbox Horror As a veteran who has been with Frank West since the original 2006 mall breakout, hitting 100% on the Deluxe Remaster (DRDR) is the ultimate way…”
“Mixed bag Has a lot of good QOL updates but also some questionable decisions. Not a fan of switching the og voice actors out, and the new look for frank is not my favorite. They mad him look much older. The gameplay is…”

“Honestly this game has more value than not the original is better in my opinion but this is still Dead Rising 1. it went from a 10/10 to a 9/10 with mods it goes back to a 10/10”
“Fantastic! I played the original back on the Xbox 360 and being able to play a new and remastered version of a great zombie game is amazing! I think this game is so worth it! Enjoyed every second.”
“After getting the true ending and reaching LVL 50, I can say that this game is quite fun for around $20. I highly recommend getting the digital deluxe edition as it includes 17 new outfits and mall music soundtracks…”

“This game is about a zombie apocalypse. It is an amazing, fun, charming, and captivating game about picking up katanas, guns, and laser gun toys? In order to kill the many psychos and undead that surround with…”

“This is a game for a new players. If you are an OG Deadrising fan, you are gonna hate this game. The soul was sucked out of the first one to make this censored waterdown "remake". Calling it a "Deluxe Remaster" doesn't…”
“I should preface this review by saying that Dead Rising (2006) is probably one of my top 3 favorite games and my favorite of the entire series. Thus I am very familiar with it and also have a lot of nostalgia for it…”
“This game is actively worse then the original in most places and removes pretty much all of the charm with different voice actors and completely changes some characters with extreme censorship.”

“Other than a few audio and visual changes of the times, this game still holds up very well. Still one of my favorite games of all time, great game, great franchise! 9.5/10”
— a player, Steam review · 42 hrs played“This remaster is a mixed bag. I'll start with the cons, then get to the pros. Dead Rising is what I believe to be the GOAT of zombie games. L4D2 right behind it. Visually this game makes the original look archaic in most cases, but there's some minor visual bugs that weren't in…”
— a player, Steam review · 26 hrs played“The honest truth about this remaster is it's mostly middling compared to the likes of the Resident Evil remakes, barring Resident Evil 3 remake, and lackluster to the original with cutting of some parts of the game and the dodgy performance.
