Dead Rising[b] is a 2006 action-adventure game developed and published by Capcom. The game is the first entry in the Dead Rising series. The story follows photojournalist Frank West after he becomes trapped in a zombie infested shopping mall in the town of Willamette, Colorado. Frank must uncover the mystery behind the outbreak before a rescue helicopter arrives in three days to evacuate him. The game features multiple endings depending on the conditions met by the player.

The game is played from a third-person perspective and features an open world for the player to explore in the form of the Willamette Parkview Mall. The player must survive by scavenging for items around the shopping mall to fight zombies and hostile human non-player characters known as psychopaths, while rescuing friendly human non-player characters known as survivors. In addition, the game features a set time limit of 72 hours, which the player will have to complete the story within before the time expires.

Dead Rising was released on August 8, 2006,[1][2] originally for the Xbox 360. The game became a critical and commercial success, leading it to being introduced as part of the Xbox 360 "Platinum Hits" lineup and spawning three sequels – Dead Rising 2 in September 2010, Dead Rising 3 in November 2013, and Dead Rising 4 in December 2016. A port of the game was developed for the Wii, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop, released in February 2009.[3] A mobile phone version was developed. As part of its tenth anniversary, the original Xbox 360 version of the game was re-released on September 13, 2016, for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One.[4]
