E3 2016: Dead Rising 4 maybe coming to PS4?

One of our astute readers (thanks, WaffenAssAss… great name, too) pointed out to me that Dead Rising 4 may be coming to other platforms after all! Watching the Microsoft Keynote, it’s important to notice how they announce the games that are, and are not exclusives. The ones that are exclusive to Windows 10 and Xbox One all had a title card before them stating “Xbox One and Windows 10 Exclusive”, with a booming, epic voice announcing it to the audience. Dead Rising 4 on the other hand, did not. The trailer just began with the Christmas music, and that was that. 

This isn’t necessarily confirmation of anything, but it’s important to note that not only didn’t it say exclusive, but there also wasn’t any mention of it being first on Xbox One as well. So, put two and two together, seems like we may be getting an announcement of it coming to PlayStation 4 this evening as well. We can hope! Almost the entire Dead Rising series has been on multiple platforms, with only Case Zero, Case West, and Dead Rising 3 being permanently locked to any platforms (although Dead Rising 1 is only available outside of Xbox 360 on the Nintendo Wii, and the game is significantly scaled back with massive changes to both gameplay and some narrative). We’ll keep you updated if this turns out to be the case!
