E3 2014: New Dead Rising DLC Available Now

There was a little something for horror fans at this year’s E3, especially those who enjoy things a little campy. In a press conference focused on tongue-in-cheek fun, Microsoft revealed DLC for the Xbox exclusive Dead Rising 3.

Falling in-line with the less than serious tone of the Microsoft outing, Capcom’s latest DLC for the franchise makes fun of itself in its War and Peace of a title, Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX Plus Alpha, a play on the company’s many Street Fighter 2 versions of years past.

Capcom is celebrating its 31st anniversary and is using the new Dead Rising DLC to celebrate its history. Players can cosplay as characters from across Capcom’s storied past. From Street Fighter to Final Fight, players can expect a hellacious romp through touching nostalgia as they slay zombies while being transported to a time when Ryu ruled the world.

And then the bomb dropped. As is the trend with today’s software announcements, the Dead Rising 3 DLC is available right NOW, only on Xbox Live for $9.99.
