The new version will offer "fully optimised visuals" for wide screen displays, plus "upgraded textures" for characters, backgrounds and in-game objects.

Steam Achievements and Trading Cards, Steam Cloud support and global leaderboards will also be included, as will the ability to switch between a controller or keyboard and mouse.

ORIGINAL STORY 5/6/14 2.50am: If you wanted to play Dead Rising 3, but weren't sold on forking over hundreds of pounds on an Xbox One, you may be in luck as a recently leaked listing on Steam's database suggests the open-world zombie sequel could be coming to Valve's popular distribution service.

While the first Dead Rising was an Xbox 360-exclusive, its sequel - along with its spruced up re-release, Dead Rising 2: Off the Record - was released on Steam as well, suggesting that this third outing could make its way there too.
