The Zombie Research Society recently teamed up with Major Nelson of Xbox Live to celebrate the release of Dead Rising 4; and our own Cameron Carlson visited the official Microsoft Studios in Redmond, Washington to offer up ten helpful tips for surviving the zombie apocalypse! His expertise in disaster preparedness, and experience with a variety of weapons and survival gear, definitely provided an entertaining take on some of the funny and unusual Weapon Combos found throughout the popular video game franchise.

Whether you’re scouting the perfect vantage point from the fourth floor, or scrounging for food from the Microsoft office dumpsters; Cameron Carlson has you covered! So set down that Xbox controller, take a quick break from playing Dead Rising 4, and check out this amazing zombie-proof tour of the Xbox headquarters.

We all know Frank West is the zombie fighting champion of Willamette, but what could you do if the zombie apocalypse suddenly hit in real life? We wanted to find out, so we invited zombie survival expert and member of the Zombie Research Society Cameron Carlson to Xbox headquarters to walk Xbox Live’s Major Nelson through the key things needed to survive an outbreak.

We’re positive that Cameron’s tips will help both you and Frank West survive the inevitable zombie apocalypse, but we’re not so sure about Major Nelson! Of course there’s still plenty of time to test your mettle in Dead Rising 4, which is now available on both Xbox One and Windows 10 PC… just in time for Christmas! After all, ’tis the season to slay zombies.

So check out our video below; and for more information just visit Major Nelson’s official blog or swing by the Xbox Wire online. You can also purchase Dead Rising 4, the Season Pass and Deluxe Edition directly from the Microsoft Store or Amazon. We’ll see you at the Willamette Mall, and remember… what you don’t know can eat you!
