With Dead Rising 2: Off The Record, Capcom are returning to the story of the protagonist from the first Dead Rising game, Frank West. As a freelance photo-journalist, Frank exposed the Zombie outbreak at the Williamette mall, but after that – we didn’t know what had happened to him. That is until now. Capcom have released a new trailer for Off The Record, entitled “The Missing Years”, which – as you would expect – shows us what has happened to Frank in the intervening years between the two games. It goes about explaining how – despite his best intentions – things went wrong for poor Frank and he ended up down on his luck, entering the Terror Is Reality gameshow.

To find out Frank’s side of the story, check out the trailer below:

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record is set for an October 14th release date, for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
