Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster Trophy Guide & Roadmap

Completing this and then finishing the current playthrough will unlock the “Real Mega Buster”, which is a powerful weapon capable of killing Psychopaths very quickly, and zombies/cultists/soldiers in a single shot to the head. It will spawn outside the Security Room by the wall and has 300 shots, and can be replaced every time you return.

There are two main ways to grind kills: 1) The traditional method of driving in the Maintenance Tunnels; 2) using a Rocket Launcher with the Infinite Ammo Magazine in the caves at the end of Overtime Mode.

The second method is one hour faster, but you will first need to rescue 50 Survivors to unlock the magazine, and you will need to play through Overtime Mode to reach the spot. Method 1 is recommended if you want to get access to the Real Mega Buster early as well as get to Level 50 early, while Method 2 is recommended if you want to minimize the grind and play through the game as normally as possible.

Method 1: Maintenance Tunnels (4 Hours for all Kills, no preparation required)

For this method, after you complete the intro you will want to head immediately to Leisure Park. In the northwest will be an alley that leads to a parking area, with a ramp down into the Maintenance Tunnels. In the parking area you will find a Red Convertible, and inside the tunnels you will find a Box Truck and White Sedan parked at different locations. The idea is to drive between each vehicle, grinding kills at the packed areas, then swapping vehicles when the previous one is either smoking or has blown up.

The below map shows the cycle you want to take with this. The numbers are vehicles, and the colored boxes are the areas where you will want to grind kills with the respective vehicle.

1. Take the Red Convertible (1) and head inside the Maintenance Tunnels, then go north. Drive back and forth along this section killing the zombies until the convertible blows up.
2. Get into the Box Truck (2) and drive to the southeast area of the tunnels, then drive up and down the long path near the sedan. Once the truck starts smoking, head up to the third vehicle.
3. Get into the White Sedan (3) and head to the two spots near the entrance. The first section is better for kills if you drive in and out of the path that leads to the Warehouse, but it is recommended that you only do a few laps of these zombies before going to the zombies near where you entered the Maintenance Tunnels until it is smoking, then head back outside to the parking area. You don’t want to overdo it and destroy the sedan in the first grinding spot as it will be a bit of a run to get back.
4. Once you’re back outside, get in the convertible and repeat the cycle.

Running each vehicle in these specific locations where the zombie packs are dense until the vehicles are either smoking or have blown up, you can expect 2,500 – 3,000 kills every cycle. Therefore it will take roughly 15 – 20 cycles to get all the kills.

The map also shows the Maintenance Tunnel Key (4) which can be used to unlock the doors leading upstairs in each section of the tunnels. If you wish to make a backup save during this process, you can head upstairs near the White Sedan to find the Paradise Plaza bathrooms, but as the game will be autosaving every time you enter/leave the Maintenance Tunnels, this shouldn’t be necessary.

Method 2: Overtime Mode Caves (3 Hours for all kills, requires some preparation)

For this method, you will first want to rescue 50 Survivors and complete the game to unlock the Infinite Ammo/Durability Magazine in the Security Room. Next you will want to play through Overtime Mode, making sure to acquire a Rocket Launcher from one of the special forces soldiers. Once you reach the Point of No Return of Overtime Mode where you enter the caves with Isabela, simply go back and forth between two areas unloading your Infinite Rocket Launcher at zombies to rack up kills. The timer will stop at this point so you won’t be pressured for time at all, and once you are done you can quickly defeat the last boss to unlock the “Real Mega Buster”. You will get around 1,000 kills every 3 minutes.

There are 12 psychopaths in the game that count towards this, 10 of which are optional and 2 that are tied to Cases (story missions).

See The Grateful Eight  .

This will need its own partial playthrough to complete, as you will need to kill survivors and go about a very specific set of actions in order to get 8 female survivors to spawn simultaneously, as only 8 survivors can be spawned in the mall at one time.

1. Once you have free reign in the mall, fast forward time to 6:00PM, then go out to Leisure Park and kill Sophie who will be running from the Convicts.
2. Fast forward time again to 9:00PM, at which point you’ll receive a call from Otis for the Out of Control scoop. Head into Wonderland Plaza and kill Adam by the Space Rider. Grab his Small Chainsaw for easier zombie clearing later.
3. Rescue Greg from the Space Rider and follow him to the women’s bathroom to unlock the shortcut to Paradise Plaza. Go through the shortcut and kill him afterwards.
4. Fast forward time to 10:00PM for the Japanese Tourists scoop. Head into Wonderland Plaza and kill Yuu and Shinji.
5. Fast forward time to 11:00PM for the Shadows of the North Plaza scoop. Head into North Plaza and kill David.
6. Fast forward time to 7:00AM for the Lovers scoop. Head into Wonderland Plaza and kill Tonya and Ross.
7. Fast forward time to 8:00AM for the Hatchet Man scoop. Head into North Plaza and kill Barbara, Josh and Rich.
8. Fast forward time to 9:00AM for the Coward scoop. Head into Al Fresca Plaza and kill Gordon. You are now ready to start escorting the 8 female survivors, so feel free to make a manual save here.
9. Head into Paradise Plaza to save Pamela and Heather from Child’s Play (if Pamela dies to zombies, you can reload your autosave). Now go through the shortcut to Wonderland Plaza.
10. Fast forward time to 11:00AM for the Restaurant Man scoop. Go back through the shortcut to Paradise Plaza and kill Ronald in Jill’s Sandwiches.
11. Return to the bathroom and fast forward time to 12:00PM for the Above the Law scoop. Go through to Wonderland Plaza.
12. You will have to do the following in one hour so you can get back through to Paradise Plaza before it hits 1:00PM. Tell your followers to wait in the bathroom and pressing + , then head up to Lovely Fashion House and kill Jo. Untie Kay, Janet, Lily and Kelly, then head back to the bathroom and go through to Paradise Plaza.
13. Fast forward to 1:00PM to spawn two survivors in Wonderland Plaza. Head back through, tell your survivors to wait again, then head towards the Food Court entrance to find Nick and Sally hanging from an inflatable bunny. Kill Nick and rescue Sally.
14. Once all 7 girls are back at the bathroom, head back through to Paradise Plaza for a cutscene where you’re introduced to the Raincoat Cult. Kill them and rescue Jennifer for the crate. Once she joins you, you will get the trophy.

See Saint  .

There are 48 survivors you can save + up to 4 story survivors depending on which ending you get. If you are going into Overtime Mode you will need to complete that for Isabela to count towards the total. This will have to be done in a single playthrough as it does not carry over. If you want to get the True Ending in the same playthrough, you cannot let any survivors die. If 1-2 survivors die, you will have to abandon the story by letting time expire before starting Case 7-1 to be able to escape with 50 survivors.

» Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster All Survivors, Psychopaths, Calls Locations

There are multiple opportunities to get these when rescuing survivors. Two good opportunities are during the Japanese Tourists scoop when Yuu and Shinji bow, and during the Restaurant Man scoop when Ronald cheers after eating his food.

If you struggle to get this normally, there is an easier way to do it on Day 3. If you kill Kent Swanson during the Photographer’s Pride scoop at 12:00PM September 21, he will drop the Camera 2 Book, which increases PP from Photographs by +100%. With this you can simply take a 100% photo of a PP sticker for 10,000 PP.

See Census Taker  .

You will need to photograph 30 unique survivors for this. You can photograph them as you find them, but if you want you can simply wait until you’ve rescued 30+ and photograph them all at the Security Room.

When fighting psychopaths, make sure to photograph at least 4 of them. You don’t have to do it during the fight, you can take a photo of their dead bodies and it will count. The convicts and cultists will not count towards this.

As you play you will get calls from Otis (and later Isabela) for visiting areas for the first time, for optional Scoops and for story Cases. There are a total of 42 calls available and you only need 30, so you can afford to miss some of these. That being said, you will still want all related to optional survivors so that you can rescue them all for Saint  . This needs to be done in a single playthrough as the calls do not carry over between playthroughs.

OVERTIME MODE 

The best way to do this is by using either the Face Crusher skill ( + from behind, unlocked at level 36) or the Disembowel skill ( + from the front, unlocked at level 43), as these skills will instantly kill Special Forces.

If you are too low-levelled to have these skills, you can instead get the Wrestling Magazine, which increases the effectiveness of Frank’s hand-to-hand attacks. This can be found in the Empty Shop next to Crislip’s Home Saloon after defeating Cliff during the Hatchet Man scoop. With the magazine in hand, try to find one or two soldiers and punch them constantly, rolling if they manage to stun lock you.

The Convicts are psychopaths that spawn in Leisure Park at 6:00PM every night. They drive around in a military vehicle trying to shoot and run over you. Kill them all and get into their vehicle for this.

The secret passageway is found in Wonderland Plaza, and connects through to Paradise Plaza for a shortcut. This can be found during the Out of Control scoop (unlocked at 9:00PM on Day 1). Kill the psychopath Adam, then stop the Space Rider to rescue Greg. Speak to him and he will offer to show you the shortcut, simply follow him to the women’s bathroom to unlock this.

Zombie Brad can be encountered after completing Case 7-2, where you find the 5 bombs in the Maintenance Tunnels. After seeing his fate in some cutscenes, head back into the Maintenance Tunnels and go towards the Maintenance Tunnel Warehouse where you will get another cutscene and this trophy.

Zombie Jessie can be encountered after completing The Facts: Memories. Head back towards the Security Room and you will get some cutscenes seeing her fate. Once you enter Security Room, you will get this trophy.

The Cases are the story missions that you can progress across the three days. Complete all 8 Cases and The Facts, then make sure to be at the Heliport above the Security Room at 12:00PM on September 22 (Day 4) and you will unlock Overtime Mode. This will be a separate mode from the main menu, which your current save will automatically continue into.

In order to get the True Ending, you must complete Overtime Mode and defeat the boss at the end.

Before you do this, it is recommended that you’ve completed both Saint  and Zombie Annihilator  , to have access to both the Infinite Ammo/Durability Magazine and the Real Mega Buster, as well as be Level 50 for maximum health and inventory capacity. Collect both of these from inside the Security Room, then you will want to find 3 Magazines to increase how much health the consumed food will heal:

• Health 1 (+50%) – Sir Books-a-lot, Wonderland Plaza
• Health 2 (+50%) – Sinister Read, Entrance Plaza
• Survival (+100%) – Empty Store next to Crislip’s Home Saloon, North Plaza

With these three magazines, all food items will heal triple. Orange Juice, Milk, Coffee Creamer, Wine, Well Done Steak, and Golden Brown Pizza will all fully heal you. What you will want to do is fill your inventory with these desirable foods, then locate the nearest bathroom (the save icon won’t appear on your map, but you can still fast forward time at them all). Fast forward time until you’re on your last health bar, then eat some food and repeat until you are out of food. You will want to continue doing this, collecting all the good food in the mall and killing survivors/psychopaths you encounter for more food. Survivors/Psychopaths will appear on your map so you will know exactly where targets are. If you happen to get any Raw Meat or Uncooked Pizza from someone you kill, you can cook it in a microwave oven in Paradise Plaza, Al Fresca Plaza or the Food Court to make sure they don’t go off.

Starting from Day 4, you will encounter Raincoat Cultists and Special Forces Soldiers. These can both potentially drop food so are worth killing, but be very careful around Special Forces as they can stun lock you with their machine guns. If you get stun locked and you think you might die, you can quickly pause and Suspend Save, then when you reload you’ll be at the entrance to the location you’re in allowing you to heal. If you manage to get your hands on a Heavy Machinegun, either from a crate drop or from the Convicts, it is worth carrying around as it will annihilate enemies.
