Back when Dead Rising 2 was coming out, the question on everyone's mind was "Is Frank in it? What about him? Did he manage to keep living with the infection?" and so on. Of course, in the end, he was nowhere to be seen. But that's fine! Capcom Vancouver wanted to provide their own story that didn't heavily rely on the somewhat popular characterization of Frank West. But this little piece coming out as the "true" epilogue to Dead Rising 2 (not even as DLC, this was an XBLA download) peaked interests from everyone, especially those that grew to love Frank from the original game.
The gameplay is exactly like Dead Rising 2, this saw no real change. However, the big difference here is if you didn't have a co-op partner, a bot would control Frank to help you slay the undead in this colorful laboratory, all while spatting off comments from time-to-time! There's still charm to be had from this experience, especially with the ridiculous stereotype that is this game's only boss.
To a degree, this would serve a level of importance, as it was a minor tease of what's to come with connecting tissues into Dead Rising 3.
