Dead Rising 3: Chaos Rising Critic Reviews

Great weapons and good bosses, but it's another DLC that doesn't offer anything new to the Dead Rising gameplay.

As with any good Zombie film, in Chaos Rising it is the other survivors you should fear more than the undead themselves. But Chaos Rising does seem to relegate the Zombies almost entirely to the backdrop. This content could have almost been in any game, and doesn’t fit the Dead Rising world all that well.

The problem with Chaos Rising is that while it offers up something unique compared to the other two DLCs, it suffers from a weak, unengaging lead character and uninteresting sidequests.

Chaos Rising is probably the most fun of the three episodes so far, but their similarity in everything from structure down to animation does little to endear the player to these hastily-sketched caricatures.

Dead Rising led by unrepentant killer could be perfect, but Chaos Rising sinks like a stone.

As a stand-alone piece of DLC, Chaos Rising isn't worth the bother.

For the price this is a bigger rip-off than that time I spent a tenner on scanning, and that's saying something.
