Swine Flu forces Dead Rising 2 to skip E3

May 20th, 2009 Posted in Adventure, Business, Culture, E3


It’s rather ironic that a Zombie game would miss an event because of a real world pandemic, or at least, “concern”. Nevertheless, the Japanese government’s international travel restrictions due to the Swine Flu forces parts of the Capcom team to skip this year’s E3, thereby canceling the showing of Dead Rising 2.

Capcom will still be showing some of their other titles at E3, with the exception of Dead Rising 2, since the Japanese team won’t be able to make it.

    the spread of AH1N1 or Swine Flu is really scary. It is a good thing that this virus is not very deadly. We are advised to take Vitamin-C and to wear face masks.

    I have a relative who got the Swine Flu in Mexico. It is a good thing that he already recovered from this disease.
