Introduction, setup, requirements

Dead Rising 3: Apocalypse Edition marks the third Dead Rising release on PC, arriving about 10 months after the console release, but with all DLC in tow (with the exception of the 'Super Ultra' content, which isn't available, at least not yet).

As usual, now proven developer Capcom Vancouver is at the helm. This time they offer up a large, open world, more zombies on screen at any given time, co-op, and more.

If you're curious on how the games fares in terms of PC features and performance, read on for a light technical analysis.
