Zombies are people infected by mutated wasps or other zombies, either through stings or bites, appearing in Dead Rising 2, Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, Dead Rising 2: Case West, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record.
Their only purpose is to find, infect, and devour humans. They were previously human beings who were infected with the parasitic larvae of an unknown experimental wasp. Zombies are rather fragile and easier to kill than uninfected humans.

Zombies in Fortune City
- Male zombies are the most common zombies, tougher than the female zombie, faster than the fat zombie.
- Female zombies are the other type of the most common zombies. Weaker than the male zombie, the female zombies that are not fat will humorously bite the player in the crotch. They are sometimes found wielding handbags.
- Fat zombies are fatter, slower, and stronger than normal. Female ones will only appear around the Slot Ranch Casino and the Food Court.
- Rusher zombies are zombies that will rush against the player if they see him. They are faster than normal, even if it is a fat zombie. While this variety of zombie will usually be male, female ones can appear, albeit rarely.
- Gas zombies are queen-carrying zombies that have been mutated with the gas. If the player gets too close to them, they will cough out gas and blood, which causes the player to begin coughing. They are about three times as strong as a male zombie, and three times as hard to dodge. Strangely, only males seem to be affected. They have the speed of a normal rusher zombie. They will also shove other zombies out of their way just to rush at the player.

Trivia[]
- According to the Official Fortune City Website, zombie animals are kept as pets. Also, it shows that there is a "Zombie Zoo," filled with zombified specimens of creatures. One noticeable example is zombie penguins.
- In Zombrex: Dead Rising Sun, Takahashi is bitten by his girlfriend Emily in the same way Frank and Chuck are bitten when a female zombie grabs them, in the crotch.
- Jason Leigh, executive producer of Dead Rising 2 and Off the Record, stated: "One of the things the Capcom Japan guys told us right from the beginning when we were developing Dead Rising 2 is that it's not a game about killing zombies, necessarily. It's a game about interacting with zombies. And any time we went toward 'How many ways can we kill them?' they kept pushing back with 'How many ways can you toy with them?' 'Can you embarrass them and treat them as play things?' Once we finally got that... that's what made the game so fun and captured what they did with Dead Rising 1."[1]
