Dead Rising & Kunitsu-Gami: How Capcom’s Balancing Remakes & Risks - Beyond 855

Capcom had a few surprises for us with this week’s Next showcase, including the full reveal of Dead Rising: Deluxe Remaster, the second time the 2006 survival-action-horror game has gotten a fresh coat of paint. Apparently a deluxe remaster is a little more involved that your run-of-the-mill HD upscale, but not quite on the same level of a remake, like Capcom’s recent Resident Evil do-overs. Whatever the case, it looks great, and we’ll happily jump back into Frank West’s shoes for some zombie mayhem when the Deluxe Remaster drops in September, and for anyone not excited about the news, rest assured Resident Evil 9 IS in development, so chill out. Aside from re-visiting the familiar to varying degrees, Capcom is also showing it’s not afraid to try something new, as demonstrated by Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, an interesting hybrid of tower defense, real-time strategy and escort mission that’s surprisingly hard to explain, which is somewhat unusual in this day and age of established game genres checking boxes of what kind of mechanics they involve. Kunitsu-Gami drops in a few weeks, and while July isn’t particularly packed with big releases, it does have some coming up, like Final Fantasy XVI’s Dawntrail expansion, First Descendant, Zenless Zone Zero, Flintlock: Siege of Dawn, College Football 25, and Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Game. This week, Beyond is Max Scoville, Jada Griffin and Logan Plant.

Don’t be such VR haters! It may not be for you but a lot of us love it in VR!

Resident Evil 7 is the game that put Capcom back on track

[@j.kedeshturner2086]

Dino crisis would have been a better remake

[@corynolan4857]

Now if only Capcom would remake Dino Crisis

[@FreshNews247]

Was listening on Spotify and had to come over to say what happened. Jada starts confident and goes no it is annoying as fk. Max sounds like he's second-guessing everything and the other guy.

Kenitsu-Gami Path of the Goddess is a surprisingly addicting game.

I'm kinda done with remakes. Capcom gotta do something new and get off the remake train.

[@user-tn1ee3cd3k]

[@thegamegeezer5424]

Great video! Didn’t see much BioWare stuff. Dragon Age and Mass Effect are way up there for me! Final Fantasy Tactics is my favorite RPG of all time!
