[edit] Skills Pack

Skills packs are downloadable costumes. For Dead Rising 2, these costumes were first offered as pre-order bonuses. After October 12, 2010 a player could purchase these Dead Rising 2 costumes. They can still be used during Cooperative play.[1][2][3]

The Cosplay Warrior costume was announced as a Dead Rising 2: Off the Record pre-order bonus on July 21, 2011. The Cyborg, Fire Fighter, and Barbecue Chef are not offered as pre-order bonuses, they are downloadable content.

[edit] Requirement to play cooperation games

In Dead Rising 2, a free 4 MB download pack is necessary when playing co-op with someone who owns the "Skills Pack - Ninja" downloadable content. Once a player installs it, only then will the player be able to play co-op with someone who has the "Skills Pack - Ninja" content pack.

This free pack does not allow the player to wear the "Skills Pack - Ninja" costume on their own character. This pack is not necessary if the player has already downloaded and installed the "Skills Pack - Ninja" content pack.[13]

[edit] Trivia

  • Formally on the Gamestop.com website:
"Reserve Dead Rising 2 and receive the Ninja Skills Pack. The pack includes 4 pieces of Ninja clothing. When Chuck wears just one piece of the outfit, it unlocks new abilities in Chuck associated with the Ninja theme. When all 4 pieces of the outfit are worn, additional Ninja-like animations are also unlocked! Theme Pack does not include sword. Available online and in-store while supplies last."
