Blur Studios Employee Lists Dead Rising 3 On Resume
The dormant Dead Rising series could be lurching toward gamers again if a resume entry is to be believed. An animator at Blur Studios has listed the unannounced Dead Rising 3 among his credits on LinkedIn.
The animation rigger lists other projects, such as Guardians of Middle Earth, Halo 4, and Dark Souls 2. Dead Rising 3 is nestled among them. There are a few typos in the listings, such as calling PlanetSide 2 "Planete Side 2," so there's always the possibility that Dead Rising 3 is merely another one of those. It is listed as being worked on in 2012, however, and the last game in the series, Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, shipped in 2011.
There was talk about a sequel a few years back, which purportedly takes place in California and stars a mechanic named Rick. Perhaps these are one and the same.
We've reached out to Capcom, and we'll update the story if we hear anything back.
