Of course, those that played Dead Rising 2 can agree that the part Chuck played was not small at all, after being falsely accused and framed for causing the zombie outbreak in Fortune City, players spent most of DR2 chasing cases to prove Chucks innocence, helping a local reporter chase down the real culprit and ensuring safety to countless survivors by bringing t hem to the local security room. This time however, players take control of returning protagonist Frank West in exchange for Dead Rising 2’s original main character Chuck Greene. But what exactly does this game offer differently from D ead Rising 2? The real answer in all honesty is not much.ĭR 2:OTR offers players a re-imagined story of the events that occurred during Dead Rising 2.

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record was highly anticipated before its release back in 2011, many people had wanted more from fan favourite, photojournalist hero, Frank West, and this was it.
