'Dead Rising 4' game updates: New video teases killer Santa Claus and other bosses

"Dead Rising 4" is certainly on a roll when it comes to releasing new trailer videos. After all, the game is just less than a month away from getting released, so it is natural that a lot of fans still have questions about what exciting features the game has.

The newest trailer for "Dead Rising 4" gives light to the game's enemy types, which includes a mascot, a pirate, and even a Santa Claus-like antagonist.

According to Game Rant, a lot of fans are still questioning whether or not the psychotic boss fights from the game's predecessors will be returning to "Dead Rising 4" ever since the game was teased. Thankfully, the developers have gladly obliged and as such the questions of eager fans were finally answered. Now, while the answer to the question is a definite "YES," the feature itself will be relabeled and these mini-boss fights are now completely optional.

Firstly, the bosses encountered in the new "Dead Rising" game are now called as Maniacs. In previous "Dead Rising" ganes, the dangerous mini-bosses were called "Psychopaths."

In order to find the location of "Dead Rising 4's" Maniacs, players must go around and discover clues and complete specific objectives in order to get to them. Once the prerequisites are met, they will be able to face these insane survivors. The latest trailer released confirms that beating the Maniacs will be an odious task, as it features an evil-looking, axe-wielding Santa Claus as well as a knight brandishing a flaming sword, a mascot, and more.

Thankfully, according to Game N Guide, the game will feature a plethora of new weapons and vehicles that will help the protagonist — Frank West — to take down zombies and the various Maniacs for good.

Furthermore, those who pre-order the game for the Xbox One can unlock the X-Fists, which is a combo weapon for the Exo suit that enables players to smash their way through the zombies and Maniacs alike.
