Dead Rising is an action horror game that follows Frank West, a freelance photojournalist in pursuit of the story of a lifetime. What he finds is a small suburban town completely overrun by zombies. He seeks refuge in the local shopping mall, but soon learns it is far from the safe haven he had thought. Dead Rising takes place over 72 hours, during which Frank must unravel the mystery behind the catastrophe and survive the swarm of enemies. Hundreds of objects can be used as weapons to fend off the hordes of zombies - everything from golf clubs and baseball bats to cash registers and stuffed animals.

Trial Battle Mode pits players against all of the game’s bosses, one after another. Players of both Score Attack and Trial Battle modes will be able to compare their skills via the online ranking system.
