The latest installment in the Dead Rising series is officially getting closer. As leaked images suggested yesterday, a trailer for the game features original Dead Rising protagonist Frank West, who is dispatching zombies (in their natural habitat, a shopping mall) with everything from a super-powered suit of armor to what looks like a candy cane crossbow. Oh, and checking Twitter. We don’t have an exact date, but given the Christmas theme and the fact that he’s got 2016 Twitter followers, a release around the holidays seems reasonable. That’ll have it launching almost exactly three years after the previous game, which was released exclusively on the Xbox One in 2013.
