"There’s a guy standing near the entrance to the Atlantica Casino. It looks like he’s carrying some sort of briefcase."
Stacey Forsythe

Big Game Stakes is an unannounced mission in Dead Rising 2 and Off the Record.

Janus Razo is looking for an armed bodyguard to take him and his winnings to safety.

Summary[]

Janus Razo is located outside the entrance to the Atlantica Casino in Fortune Park. Janus will call out to Chuck and offers some of his money if he accepts to protect him. Chuck tells Janus that he can follow him to the Safe House if he wants to. Before Janus joins, he will ask if Chuck has a firearm. If not he will refuse to go with Chuck until he gets one. Once he is escorted to the Safe Room he will reward Chuck with $70,000.

Janus reappears in Dead Rising 2: Off the Record with the same role, but he is located in the Food Court instead, on top of the circular platform with the moose head. His reward is also reduced to just $20,000.
