Dead Rising 2

Dead Rising 2 for the PlayStation 3, released in 2010 by Capcom, is an action-adventure survival horror game that builds on the formula of its predecessor. Set in the fictional Fortune City, a gambling and entertainment resort overrun by zombies, the game follows protagonist Chuck Greene as he fights to survive while searching for Zombrex, a medicine needed to prevent his infected daughter from turning into a zombie. Dead Rising 2 is known for its over-the-top gameplay, allowing players to combine everyday objects into creative, deadly weapons—like attaching chainsaws to a paddle or crafting an electric rake. The game features a time-based structure with multiple missions and endings, encouraging replayability. It also introduces cooperative multiplayer, letting players team up to face the zombie horde together. Praised for its humor, weapon crafting system, and chaotic fun, Dead Rising 2 became a fan favorite among zombie and action game enthusiasts.
