"Take a look out there! If those ain't zombies, then what would you call 'em?"
—Ryan LaRosa, on zombies

Ryan LaRosa is a victim appearing in Dead Rising and Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop.

He was found in the Entrance Plaza of the Willamette Parkview Mall. He was killed when Lindsay Harris removed the barricades and allowed the zombies to break into the plaza.

Introduction[]

Main article: 72 Hour Mode (Dead Rising)

Ryan was first seen taking command in erecting a barricade at the Entrance Plaza with Chris Hines and Freddie May. When Frank West walks into the plaza from the Security Room and gazes upon Isabela Keyes, Ryan snaps at Frank for that and explains the zombie outbreak to him, then orders him to scavenge for items to add to the barricade.

When Lindsay breached the barricade and allowed the zombies to come into the plaza, he was killed along with all the other survivors in the Entrance Plaza.

  • In the Introduction cutscene, he is seen carrying a propane tank to the barricade. But after the cutscene, the propane tank is out of sight.
  • After the cutscene of the zombies entering he can be seen back towards the fountain. He has no green health bar on him, making it impossible to "save" him.

  • He is the first character to use the word "Zombies" in the series.
