Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster Update 1.040 Out Now With Multiple Bug Fixes; Pause Menu Now Opens Upon Controller Disconnect

Capcom has released a shambling new patch for Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster today, which implements a handy feature in the form of the pause menu popping up if your controller disconnects. In addition, there’s also a range of bug fixes added, including a fix for an issue that prevented a voice clip from playing when Frank levels up, and stopping survivors getting stuck on corpses. You can read the full detail in the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster update 1.040 patch notes below.

Capcom released Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster in September 2024 for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. The game is a full overhaul of the original 2006 Dead Rising released for the Xbox 360, and includes fully enhanced visuals, new motion capture, and more. You can read our full review here. Capcom has asked fans if they’d like to see more releases similar to Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, indicating we may yet see the second or third game get the same treatment (or another franchise entirely).
