Thankfully, Capcom Vancouver realized how unpopular the time limits were among players and restricted the time limit to a specific mode in Dead Rising 3.

was extremely difficult, requiring careful planning and memorization or the use of a guide. Completing every objective, saving every NPC, etc. Each game operated according to a strict clock, with events happening at fixed times throughout the adventure. One element that conflicted with that freedom in the first few Dead Risings was their time limits. During each case, players have plenty of freedom to tackle missions, side-quests, and explore at their leisure. Frank's overall level, abilities, and other progress carries over between cases. These cases can be replayed at will, a welcome refinement compared to past games. You have been warned.Dead Rising 4 is a sandbox-style action game divided up into seven Cases (chapters).

We’ve included these on the following page to make avoiding spoilers easier. These all vary somewhat in length, too, so don’t start to panic too much when you complete the tutorial case pretty quickly.Įach of these cases has a different name to help you keep track of them and also give you an idea as to what kind of crazy shenanigans or comments are in store for Frank. The entirety of Dead Rising 4’s campaign is split over seven different cases (including the tutorial), which are essentially the game’s chapters. This will obviously depend on your skill level, how much you go exploring the environment, and just how much experimenting you do when it comes to the weapons you use for zombie slayin’. Reviewers and players who have managed to get their hands on the game early seem to suggest that Dead Rising 4 can take anywhere between 15-20 hours. Of course, while the game is open world and there’s plenty to see and do, many players will be interested in knowing just how long on average the game takes to complete. With Dead Rising 4 finally out, players will be eager to hop back into the shoes of Frank West as he embarks on another adventure around Willamette.
