Dead Rising 3 is a survival horror game developed by Capcom and published by Microsoft Studios exclusively for the Xbox One. It represents the third mainline entry in the Dead Rising series and takes place in Los Perdidos, California, following a new main character named Nick Ramos. The game has a darker, grittier look than previous entries.
The game takes place 10 years after the events in Dead Rising 2. Many of the franchise's main mechanics return but are more refined, expansive and accessible. The game takes place in an entire city where the player is free to explore not just the city scape but every building in the city with no load times. Weapon crafting returns but now you can craft your weapons on the fly anywhere, although this does come with the danger of being attacked. Driving has returned but zombies now have the ability to grab on to your car and try to drag you out of it.

Gameplay
Dead Rising 3 is the third mainline entry in the Dead Rising franchise, where you take control of a survivor (in this case Nick Ramos) of the zombie apocalypse as he undertakes various missions, kill zombies and just generally attempt to stay alive.
Weapons
Nick will be able to find various weapons while exploring Los Perdidos, which can be separated into regular weapons and Combo weapons. Every item that Nick finds is automatically added to his weapons locker, which can then be accessed from any of the safe houses you find in the city.
- — Broadsword
- — Cement Saw
- — Circular Saw
- — Crossbow
- — Flashlight
- — Gems
- — Grenade
- — Handgun
- — Machete
Vehicles
Dead Rising 3 will feature roughly 26 different vehicles in total which can be driven by the player and will be a key part of both navigating the city and decimating zombie hordes. The key difference this time around, however, is that zombies can cling to your vehicle and potentially attack you and drag you out of the vehicle whilst you're driving. As with weapons, there are the base vehicles that can be found, as well as Combo vehicles that can be made after finding the blueprints.
- — Motorcycle
- — Junker Car
- — Steamroller
- — Lambourghini
- — Bulldozer
- — Forklift
- — Police Car
- — Muscle Car
Blueprints
Scattered throughout Los Perdidas are blueprints that Nick can find that allow him to create new weapons/vehicles from pre-existing weapons/vehicles, combining them to form stronger weapons. Unlike previous games, Nick can combine the weapons/vehicles anywhere he wants, although he still needs to find the blueprints for them first (as well as the components needed).
