The original Dead Rising was an interesting game, with the 2006 title including some unique (though in some ways prohibitive) gameplay mechanics. As part of the latest update for the game’s recently-released ‘Deluxe Remaster’ Capcom have introduced a new Casual Mode option to the game.

Making the announcement on Twitter, the official Dead Rising page shared the following: “A new update is now available to download for Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, adding general fixes and new features to the game, including:

• Arabic Text Language Support
• New Casual Difficulty
• PlayStation 5 Pro Enhancements”

While the inclusion of Arabic support and the like are certainly worth noting, the biggest addition comes in the form of a Casual Mode, which according to Capcom “is recommended for players who have problems with action games,” in which “Frank also levels up faster.”

Other tweaks include an altering of the frequency and accuracy of the gunfire by Special Forces – among other subtle changes.

The other most notable addition is the support for PS5 Pro, bringing ray-traced reflections to those who own the enhanced console.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster was a surprisingly great and faithful reinterpretation of the original Xbox 360 title, and so it is encouraging to see additional options being added after the fact. Hopefully the game continues to see more post-launch support.
