Capcom today announced that Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop, based on the previously released Dead Rising, is in development for the Wii.Taking advantage of the same technology that brought Resident Evil 4 successfully to Wii, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop will have players use the Wii Remote to shoot, slash and bludgeon zombies.

Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop follows Frank West, a freelance journalist on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. In pursuit of a lead, he makes his way to the town of Willamette only to find that it has become overrun by zombies. Frank escapes to the local shopping mall, thinking it will safe but it turns out to be infested with zombies.

The game is split into a series of individual cases, all of which Frank must complete in order to gain vital information that will allow him to piece together the truth behind the zombie outbreak. In addition to the cases, players will be faced with the dilemma of deciding the rescue priority of the residents of Wilamette who also sought sanctuary in the mall. Depending on the player’s skill, some may not be so fortunate as each rescue needs to be undertaken in a set time period, therefore players may need to delay completion of a case in order to save a fellow human.
