The original Dead Rising's never released on a PlayStation platform – despite it proving popular on the Xbox 360, and even receiving a paired back Nintendo Wii port. However, publisher Capcom recently confirmed that it's bringing the 2006 undead-'em-up to Sony's new-gen system – and here's your first look at some promo shots.
Looking at the images, this very much appears to be a port rather than a remaster, as it's not exactly on par with more modern zombie games, is it? It's being handled by Polish studio QLOC, which previously worked on the PlayStation 4 version of DmC: Devil May Cry. Meanwhile, sequel Dead Rising 2 and its spin-off Off the Record is being ported by Mercenary Technology of God of War III Remastered fame.
We've embedded all of the screenshots below for your perusal pleasure. Yesterday we reported that these titles are likely due out on 13th September, as that's what the Xbox Store's got them listed as. We'll keep you updated.

As expected from Capcom. What a disappointment. Dead Rising's UI looks super dated, they could have at least changed that.
Meh. The games are fun for 10 minutes and get very boring afterwards.
Can't wait for this. I really enjoyed the DR games, especially the first, one of the games I could no longer play when I sold my 360. Really hope DR3 has a chance at coming to PS4.
I like the idea of these games, then I play them, get incredibly irritated by the controls and mechanics and lose interest. The constant countdown thing puts me off as well; I'm a "comber" who likes to take his time, Capcom!
Love the DR games, though I don't quite see the logic of releasing DR2 and the Frank West updated release together outside of MORE MONEY.
Here's hoping DR4 pulls a Tomb Raider next year.
He's covered wars, you know!
@Cassetticons It's already confirmed that DR4 is a timed exclusive.
@stevie85 honestly the games would be more fun if they gave us an option to let us play without time limits so you could just kill zombies at your leisure in any way you want
I have these games on 360. I wish Capcom would just make them backwards compatibility on the One, but I guess that ain't happening. :/
@FullbringIchigo It certainly would help.
I really hope these are not a port, I said before I wouldn't get them if they weren't HD Remasters but depending on price I may still get them.
Would of loved for Capcom to give us the option to turn the time limits off this time round, I've completed them all on the 360 and now I would just like to explore and kill zombies at my leisure. For you PS4 owners I would hope you get Left 4 Dead, an amazing co-op game that I still play even on my XB1.
If they remove the countdown timers, I will buy these games.
Is there a way we could set up something to get so many people to get Capcom to make an option to turn off time limits? That would get their attention and could persuade more people to buy the games. They are removing the time limit from DR4, so I don't see why they couldn't do the same here with a patch.
More excited for the possibilities thay come with the PC version of this. For the right price and mod support, it would be a worthwhile pick up.
Might consider this. Wouldn't buy them individually as downloads but if all three come on a disc and is priced between $19.99-39.99 then I'd get them.
When you see the remaster job of all people Activision are doing with CoD4 seeing a slightly prettier Dead Rising is sad
The first one was the best one, I was always surprised it never made it to PS3
Dont think I will get them. At least they are 3 bundled games.
I didn't like them on 360 I won't be getting them for PS4, I can't play any game that has a time limit. I like the concept but I also like to explore and find thing's, take my time I hate being rushed.
I'll pass.
I'll pass.
