As far back as January 2007 Capcom has been hinting at a sequel to the million-selling horror ‘em up Dead Rising. Today Dead Rising 2 was confirmed by a source in Canadian developer Blue Castle (of The Bigs fame).

The Eurogamer souce said: “Everyone’s really excited; the team has obviously seen the rumours and it’s been hard to keep quiet, but they can’t wait to show off the game.”

A spokesperson for Capcom Europe refused to comment on the matter. But with the game selling over a million on Xbox 360 alone and a Wii version subtitled “Chop Till You Drop” coming on February 27th next year, we’d expect the sequel to go multiplatform on PS3 as well.
