Dead Rising's PS5 Remaster Will Strip Bonus Points for Erotic Photos 1

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster – the forthcoming Capcom remake of its legendary PS3-era undead roguelike – will strip the release of its ‘Erotica’ feature, which awarded bonus points for titillating photographs. In the original version, you’d earn PP (or Prestige Points) for capturing shots of ladies’ cleavage or underwear, but that’ll no longer be the case in the PS5 version.

It’s perhaps worth pointing out the photography feature is not being removed entirely, and you will still earn PP for snapping gore, violence, or other amusing scenes. You just won’t be earning any PP for moments which stimulate your peepee, like girls in compromising positions or in states of undress. We suppose it has been almost 20 years since the original released, so times have changed.

Aside from this minor alteration, however, this is sounding like a pretty faithful re-release. Capcom is incorporating quality of life improvements, like a more modern control scheme and auto-saving, but it’s largely staying true to the original experience overall. One thing worth noting, however, is that Frank West’s original voice actor will not return, as Terence J Rotolo will not reprise his role.
