It was just a matter of time before Dead Rising‘s Frank West made his return to the PlayStation 4.

Capcom has announced today that it will be bringing the special edition of Dead Rising 4 to the PlayStation 4 on December 5th. Titled Frank’s Big Package (giggity), the game will include all of the content we’ve come to expect from the Xbox One and PC releases, along with something new – Capcom Heroes.
The mode is “an all-new way to experience the Dead Rising 4 story that lets Frank West wear over a dozen outfits and perform outrageous special attacks inspired by classic Capcom characters,” according to the press release.
The package will include the following goodies…
- Dead Rising 4 – Latest version of the main game with all difficulty settings.
- All downloadable content – Stocking Stuffer Holiday Pack, Frank Rising and Super Ultra Dead Rising 4 Mini Golf.
- All bonus content – Street Fighter Outfit Pack, My Bloody Valentine Pack, Candy Cane Crossbow, Slicecycle, Sir-Ice-A-Lot, Ugly Winter Sweater and X-Fists.
The game was originally released last year for the Xbox One as an exclusive to the console, but, like Rise of the Tomb Raider before it, it looks like it was a timed exclusive, with Capcom later releasing it for Steam and, now, the PlayStation 4, with all its goodies intact.
And the December release just makes sense, mainly because of the Christmas themed, since Frank does mow down zombies with all sorts of Xmas related gear. So bringing it around in December again will really make folks feel like killing a few zombies in time for the holidays.
We enjoyed the original game, and being able to re-experience it as a complete package (again with the word package) on the PS4 is bound to be a treat. The game will sell for $49.99.
As for those that own previous versions of Dead Rising 4, don’t worry, you’ll get Capcom Heroes as well. The mode will be offered as a free update for the game once December rolls around, so you don’t have to worry about paying extra for it or missing out. Mega Man blasting for everyone!
