Josh Bridge, an executive producer working on Dead Rising 3, believes that the minigun is the best weapon that’s being added to the game by the newly launched Operation Broken Eagle downloadable content pack.

The Xbox Wire quotes the developer as saying that, “It’s this two-handed, big over-the-top military gun and it just feels so satisfying letting it wind up and letting it rip. It just tears up the hordes and you can destroy everything around you.”

All the items and the vehicles that a player earns in Operation Broken Eagle can then be used in the core game.

Capcom has also confirmed that all the DLC packs for Dead Rising 3 will not add any sort of cooperative sections.

The company is more interested in creating single-player adventures that expand the scope of the story and introduce some interesting new challenges for the fan base.
