Where was Dead Rising 5 at E3 2021  If you were wondering where Dead Rising 5 was at E3 2021, youre not alone. It was officially missing from Capcoms line-up of titles, which included the likes of Monster Hunter, Phoenix Wright, and even Resident Evil RE:Verse. However, the reason why it wasnt mentioned is likely because its not in production, with a less likely option that its not ready to be shown to the world.

According to Robertson, Dead Rising 5 would feature co-op gameplay, with Chuck and Katie Greene returning to the series. The game was said to take place between Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 3 and was actually in development alongside Dead Rising 4. The game even shifted from Capcoms Forge engine to Unreal Engine 4.
