Dead Rising 3 - Info leaked!!

After being teased on the Dead Rising Facebook page yesterday, we now have what appears to be leaked information of the next installment of Capcom’s Dead Rising franchise.

“I’m getting packing for my new adventure – camera, notebook and baseball bat. What else would i need for a break in paradise?” – Frank West on the Dead Rising Facebook page.

According to a source at Siliconera the next story is set in a Californian town, Los Perdidos that is under Martial Law after an outbreak. The new main character known as Rick, is an orphan who works as an auto mechanic. He joins forces with survivors and they fight for survival to escape the lockdown and fix up an airplane before a bomb goes off and destroys the entire city.

There are a few other characters that have been revealed as well like Red, who is the leader of a group called the “Illegals” who are apparently people who are infected that aren’t registered by the government. Another character, Annie who is Rick’s girlfriend is a runaway and she shows compassion for the infected. Like the other games there are also psychopaths like a biker gang member who drives a “Roller Hog”, which is apparently a  motorcycle witha steam roller on the front.

Also Phenotrans seems to be behind this outbreak as well, no surprise there, and the introduction to a new villain named General Hemlock. Hemlock apparently kidnaps an important leader and is in cahoots with Marian Mallon.

Take a look at the next hero above!
