Play as Mega Man and Ghost Trick in 'Dead Rising 4' on PS4
Patience is paying off for Dead Rising fans on PlayStation 4. Last year's (formerly) Xbox One exclusive Dead Rising 4 is making its way to the PS4 with a few extras in Dead Rising 4: Frank's Big Package.

Specifically, the "Super Ultra Dead Rising 4 Mini Golf" mode that'll come out some time after the base game's December 6th release date. A post on Xbox Wire says that the game of undead putt-putt is made all the more difficult with zombies acting as hazards and generally getting in the way on the mini links. It isn't the Outlaw Golf sequel we've been clamoring for, but at least it's something.
Original 'Dead Rising' will shamble on to PC, PS4 and Xbox One
Dead Rising 4 isn't the only place folks with current-gen consoles will see photojournalist-turned-mall-savior Frank West (he's covered wars, you know) this fall. A Eurogamer report notes that developer/publisher Capcom will be bringing revamped versions of its other zombie-slaying franchise to PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Capcom confirmed the write-up -- previously based on a leaked set of PS4 trophies -- but didn't have much to offer by way of details.
