In 2006, a contract photojournalist named Frank West leapt from a helicopter and into our hearts, on a lone mission to uncover the inside track behind the mysterious zombie infestation plaguing Willamette, Colorado. Certain, he may’ve ended up trapped in a shopping center with an undead horde for 3 days, however by no means underestimate Frank—he is lined wars, you already know. Quickly, we’ll be reliving Frank’s most interesting 72 hours another time in Useless Rising Deluxe Remaster, introduced by Capcom earlier at the moment.
Useless Rising Deluxe Remaster’s teaser trailer reveal would not depart us with many particulars, apart from promising “an up to date launch with a model new look.” It is a small piece of the unique sport’s opening, exhibiting Frank’s helicopter trip as he approaches the now-fabled Willamette Parkview Mall with up to date visuals. Frank appears to be like phenomenal—Useless Rising 4 gave him an unforgivable motion hero-ass visible overhaul, however DRDR is returning Frank West to his unique, everyman look. Frank West shouldn’t appear to be a heroic badass; Frank West has an terrible jacket and a progressing widow’s peak.
Fortunately, DRDR has Frank trying common as hell, simply as God supposed. Nonetheless, Useless Rising followers within the teaser trailer’s feedback are dismayed by how he sounds. Whereas there is no official casting affirmation to go off of, the temporary little bit of voice performing we hear within the teaser has some satisfied that TJ Rotolo, the English voice actor for Frank till Useless Rising 4, will not be reclaiming the function for the remaster. Whereas it hurts my coronary heart to know I may not hear the Frank of my youth sighing with reduction after chugging scavenged orange juice for well being, I will should discover a technique to stick with it.
The teaser would not present a launch window or once we can anticipate extra particulars for Useless Rising Deluxe Remaster, so we will solely speculate about whether or not it will replace something past the graphics. Seeing the Willamette Mall’s ruined outlets and promenades with current-day visible constancy is greater than sufficient for me already, although. So long as I can nonetheless put on a Servbot head whereas bludgeoning zombies with a 2×4, I will be content material.
