On the eve of this weekend’s Penny Arcade Expo Capcom has revealed that Dead Rising 2: Off The Record will include a new Sandbox Mode which allows players to explore the limits of Fortune City without the restraint of an in-game clock.
Surprised? We are too, especially as Dead Rising’s love it or hate it time mechanic is one of this franchise’s signature attributes.
“Players can explore the casinos, restaurants, malls and new Uranus Zone that comprise Fortune City without the obstacle of time,” explained a communication released by Capcom teasing the new mode.
“Challenges placed throughout the city offer players the chance to earn additional cash for use in the pawn shops and vending machines around Fortune City. Ranging from collection style challenges to vehicle-based challenges to zombie massacre challenges; the higher the rank of the player, the more cash they win.”
More information will be revealed this weekend, but for the time being we’re sure some fans will be very happy that they’ll get the opportunity to explore the new and improved Fortune City to their heart’s content come October.
