According to an alleged source close to the developer, Canada-based Blue Castle Games is secretly (or not so secretly, if there’s any truth to this) constructing the sequel to Capcom’s mall zombie slaughterfest, Dead Rising. Speaking to the folks at Eurogamer — they’ve covered console wars, you know — the source claims that the Western team “can’t wait to show off the game.”

Blue Castle, more known for its work on ball-and-stick game The Bigs, currently lists an “unannounced Action title” on its website, designating it as an “amazing” project for multiple platforms. We have, of course, requested comment from both the developer and Capcom. Given how talkative companies usually are about unannounced and potentially nonexistent games, we fully expect to have a release date, screenshots and the inevitable cliffhanger ending before the afternoon’s out. Thanks to Joystiq for covering this.
