Wiki: On September 15, 2010, Capcom announced a second downloadable episode titled Case West. The Xbox 360 exclusive will be available on the Xbox Live Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points. Case West features the return of Frank West, the hero of the previous Dead Rising, in a new story that occurs shortly after the events of Dead Rising 2. Frank must team up with Chuck Greene, the protagonist of Dead Rising 2, in order to investigate the connection between Phenotrans, the pharmaceutical company responsible for manufacturing Zombrex, and the Fortune City outbreak, and clear Chuck’s name of any involvement.

The episode includes a co-op feature allowing two players to complete the game as each character. Case West will feature new challenges, enemies, items, and the ability to create a number of new combo weapons. The photography element from the first Dead Rising also returns; both Frank and Chuck are able to take photographs in order to provide indisputable proof of Phenotrans’ part in the zombie outbreaks. Case West is currently scheduled for release on December 27, 2010.
