* BonusBoss: The Maniacs. Like [[VideoGame/DeadRising Sean,]] they each command an army of insane followers that range from deranged football players to people in shark costumes. Unlike the psychopaths of previous games, you'll have to do a little digging to find and fight the leaders themselves.

* PoweredArmor: The Exo-Suits found all around, which temporarily give Frank SuperStrength and lets him equip special Combo Weapons.

* PoweredArmor: The Exo-Suits found all around, which temporarily give Frank SuperStrength and lets him equip special weapons and can even be upgraded further with certain objects.
** Arcade machines grant [[ShockAndAwe electric]] properties to the Exo-Suit's melee attacks, allow Frank to fire electric bolts and releases a burst of electricity as a Special Attack.
** Slurpee machines grant [[AnIcePerson freezing]] properties, replacing Frank's melee attacks with the ability to send forth tornadoes of ice with decent range, allowing him to fire ice spikes that insta-freeze zombies and release a large burst of ice tornadoes forward as a Special Attack.
** Military equipment, while weakening his melee attacks, allow Frank to [[StuffBlowingUp plant bombs on enemies]] when he hits them, allows him to fire an high fire rate machine gun as a ranged attack, and has him fire a [[MacrossMissileMassacre swarm of missiles]] into the air to [[DeathFromAbove blast nearby enemies from above]].
** Air conditioning equipment allow Frank to fire [[BlowYouAway vacuum blasts]] in melee range, charge up a compressed air blast as a short ranged attack and fire a burst of vacuum spheres (similar to the Suckmaster 3000
Combo Weapons.Weapon) as a Special Attack.
** After completing the game, a unique Exo-Suit based off of [[VideoGame/MegaManX Zero]] will be available in any of the emergency shelters, giving Frank access to a fast two hit melee combo with Zero's Z-Saber, fire blasts from the Z-Buster (with explosive charged shots) and fires a long range SwordBeam as a Special Attack. And as an added bonus can be equipped without a pre-existing Exo-Suit, essentially giving Frank a free Exo-Suit that can be replenished.

STOP COMPLAINING.


* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: A meta example. By making the game a timed exclusive instead of releasing on the [=PS4=] and Xbox One simultaneously, Capcom gave Sony players plenty of time to get over the hype and see how the game really is, contributing to its pitiful sales on the former console.

* AnAssKickingChristmas: [[SubvertedTrope Semi-Subverted]]: The outbreak started on Black Friday, but Frank and Brad don't go to Willamette until six weeks later. Despite the Christmas decorations and music, the game takes place sometime in January 2022. That being said, the Christmas theme is nonetheless still prevalent throughout the game, so therefore the more accurate term to describe this would be "An Ass-Kicking Belated Christmas".
