Capcom's Dead Rising 2 Studio Working on New IP

Posted January 13, 2012 by Ben Strauss

The studio behind Dead Rising 2 has apparently started to hire for a completely new IP, should job listings prove accurate.  The company is currently looking for a design director for an entirely new third person action adventure title. 

Spotted by GamerZines, the advertisement also correlates to a separate listing posted to Gamasutra, in which a total of two projects are admitted by the company. 

While this certainly does indicate a possible Dead Rising 3, the second title remains up in the air at this time.  Reports also noted that the game could be yet another zombie action title that would see characters survive an outbreak in a completely quarantined city.
