Soon Xbox One owners won't be the only ones playing Dead Rising 3. Capcom revealed today that a PC version will be arriving this summer.
Dead Rising 3 on PC will be released through Steam. As a result, it's going to have many of the usual features of that digital platform: achievements, cloud saves, trading cards, and leaderboards. You can play with a mouse and keyboard or use a gamepad if you'd rather play from your couch.
The development team at Capcom Vancouver is also upgrading the game's graphics for PC. Expect upgraded textures for characters, objects and environments. The visuals will also be optimized for widescreen displays. You can catch at a glimpse at these improvements in the first PC screenshots below.
Dead Rising 3's performance, of course, will depend on your system's specs. Here are the minimum and recommend system requirements announced by Capcom today:
Minimum System Requirements:
OS: Windows 7 64-bit edition, Windows 8 64-bit edition
Processor: Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.30GHz (or Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.83GHz) / AMD Phenom II X4 945 @ 3.00 GHz or higher
Memory: 6 GB RAM
Hard Drive: 30 GB free
Video Card: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 570 / AMD Radeon 7870 or higher
DirectX: Version 11
Controller: Keyboard (international and standard), Mouse (up to 4 buttons), Xbox 360 PC compatible controller or compatible gamepad
Connection: Broadband internet connection and Steam account required
Recommended System Requirements:
OS: Windows 7 64-bit edition, Windows 8 64-bit edition
Processor: Intel Core i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz or AMD equivalent Memory: 8 GB RAM
Hard Drive: 30 GB free
Video Card: NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 670 2GB / AMD Radeon 7970 2GB
DirectX: Version 11.1 or greater
Dead Rising 3 is set in the zombie-infested city of Los Perdidos, California. The player character is Nick Ramos, a young mechanic trying to escape along with other human survivors. He can use supplies found throughout the game's massive world to craft custom weapons and vehicles. He'll use these twisted creations to carve up the scads of undead roaming the streets.
DR3 was one of the launch titles for the Xbox One last November. It received fairly good reviews, though the framerate was a common complaint among critics. It sold about a million copies in its first month on store shelves.
The announcement of a PC version is shocking, frankly. I'm not surprised that a third-party publisher would want to bring their game to as many platforms as possible. Still, you'd think that an "exclusive" would stay exclusive for longer than six months.
