Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster drops ‘Erotica’ ratings from its photography mechanic

Dead Rising: Deluxe Remaster is aiming to be the definitive version of 2006’s stone-cold classic, and this do-over is smart in terms of what it adds to the game, and in terms of what it retains. A few changes have been made throughout the game that involve taking things out, however – and one of the most notable is an omission from the photography mechanic.

The photography mechanic has one major adjustment in the Deluxe Remaster, however – and it’s sure to ruffle some feathers.
