Dead Rising 2 Ships Two Million Units Worldwide
Well, it looks as though Dead Rising 2 is a certified hit...on store shelves at least. Capcom has announced that it's hit a goal of shipping two million units worldwide since the sequel's September release.
All told, the Dead Rising franchise has shipped four million copies total worldwide, between the original Xbox 360 game, the Wii port Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop, and the sequel.
Capcom's acquisition of developer Blue Castle Games has been cleared by Canadian authorities, and it's being renamed. Get ready for it: The studio is now going to be known as Capcom Game Studio Vancouver.
At least its games are exciting.
