When Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster was first announced, there was no guarantee for fans that these tracks would return. But Capcom’s recent confirmation, via VG247, who spoke to a spokesperson, has put those fears to rest and fans can rest assured the remaster will stay true to its roots in this aspect.
The news comes as a relief to many who were concerned about potential changes to the game’s audio due to licensing issues. The return of these tracks means that fans can enjoy the remaster with the same nostalgic audio experience that made the original game stand out.

One of the most celebrated tracks, “Gone Guru,” plays during the encounters with the Convicts in Leisure Park. The way the track complements the madness of the gameplay is just too good.
If the remaster does nothing more than give us a better quality version of Justified, I'll consider it a win. God I'm so looking forward to this.

Fans have taken to social media to share their excitement, with many expressing relief at this news. Some fans even went so far as to state that a high-quality version of “Justified” alone would make the remaster worthwhile.
The Deluxe Remaster Is More Than Just a Graphical Improvement
The remaster will also bring quality-of-life improvements, such as better AI for survivors and the ability to move while aiming. It will also run on the RE Engine, supporting up to 4K resolution at 60 frames per second.
However, the retention of the original music is the highlight for many. And although there have been some changes that haven’t quite hit the mark for fans, this is a big win.
For fans of Dead Rising, this remaster promises not just a graphical upgrade, but a return to what made the game a cherished part of gaming history.
As we approach the release date, every new detail that fans get only fuels the hype. Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is set to launch on September 19, 2024, for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series consoles.
