Dead Rising® 2: Off the Record sees Frank West – photojournalist and original hero of the Dead Rising® Willamette incident – take center stage as players experience a re-imagining of the Fortune City outbreak. Forget what you know about Dead Rising® 2, "Frank West is back in the game!"

Full of deadly rides and crazy attractions, the sci-fi themed Uranus Zone is a true zombie-killing paradise.
