Dead Rising 2: Off the Record DLC Available - The Cosplay Warrior


Submitted by OS_Gamer; November 16, 2011

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record got some new DLC recently in the form of the Cosplay Warrior Skills Pack. According to Capcom, when you download this DLC you can "Bring out Frank's inner nerd and become a Cosplay Warrior to increase PP (Prestige Points) generation and gain special attacks when using the practice sword and shield. Inspired by MMORPG players and geeks all over the world who dress up as their favorite characters in armor made out of cardboard, this skill set will have you hitting that level cap in no time!"

Here are the details:

  • Cardboard Helmet
  • Monster Facepaint
  • Cardboard Armor
  • Cardboard Boots
Skill Pack bonuses:
  • Increases Prestige Point generation by 25%
  • Every attack gives extra Prestige Points
  • Special "warrior" style attacks using the practice sword and shield
Looking at the trailer, it looks like the Cosplay Warrior Skills Pack does indeed make the practice sword and shield a lot more effective and also works when you combine them with motor oil to create the Infernal Arms combo weapon. One would also assume that it would work with Holy Arms as well. 


As usual, the Dead Rising franchise pulls no punches when it comes to humor, taking a good cheap shot at what is probably a good portion of its fanbase by making fun of those "geeks and nerds" that dress up in cardboard armor. Never mind that we're talking about a video game here, a milieu that is firmly a part of that same group in the minds of most. But I digress. To be fair, Dead Rising has always sharply attacked pretty much everyone in a comical way, so why stop now? It's all in good fun. The Cosplay Warrior Skills Pack is available for $2.00, which is a great price for this awesome budget title.
