A prequel for the upcoming Dead Rising 2, titled Case Zero, will be available exclusively for the Xbox 360. It takes place 2 hours after the conclusion of the first Dead Rising and 3 years before Dead Rising 2. The story will bridge the gap between both of the games. You will take on the role of Chuck Greene, the protagonist for Dead Rising 2, as he is stranded with his daughter in the town of Still Creek.
This is essentially a paid for extended demo giving consumers a taste of what is to come. It’s an interesting concept and this may become a trend as companies are looking to maximize profits through digital distribution. While no firm release date or price have been announced, expect to see it on Xbox Live sometime in late July or early August.
