The Ninja Skills Pack is a DLC clothing pack in Dead Rising 2, released on November 2, 2010. It was given as a pre-order bonus to players who purchased the game from GameStop. The clothing pack appears again in Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, with parts of the outfit scattered throughout Fortune City.

The outfit consists of four pieces of clothing, one for each section of the body. Once obtained, they can be accessed at the clothing locker in the Safe House restroom. In Dead Rising 2, at least one piece of clothing must be worn to gain the outfit's special abilities. In Off the Record, all pieces must be worn.

Skills packs are downloadable costumes that can be found in the Safe House restroom clothing locker.

For Dead Rising 2, the Ninja, Psychopath, Solider of Fortune, and Sports costumes were first offered as pre-order bonuses. After October 12, 2010, a player could purchase these costumes. These costumes can be used during co-op.[2][3][4] Off the Record separates these four costumes' parts and scatters them throughout Fortune City for Frank to find or unlock.

For Off the Record, the Cosplay Warrior costume was announced as a pre-order bonus on July 21, 2011. The Cyborg, Fire Fighter, and Barbecue Chef were not offered as pre-order bonuses and are only available as DLC.

Co-op requirement[]

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

This free pack does not allow the player to wear the Ninja Skills Pack costume on their own character. This pack is not necessary if the player has already downloaded and installed the Ninja Skills Pack content pack.[1]

Trivia[]

  • Formally on the GameStop 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."
    • The website incorrectly states that all four pieces of the outfit have to be worn to gain the special attack animations.
  • Left Hand Lance in the Tape it or Die blog mentions the Ninja Skills Pack outfit, Psychopath Skills Pack outfit, and cowboy outfit. He also mentions seeing two Chucks in co-op play.[16]
