Ambuzol Vaspilatin or Zombrauctus Pendeo Autoinjectors, commercially marketed by Phenotrans as Zombrex, is a controversial drug in the Dead Rising universe that greatly slows the process of zombification. It is a key item in Dead Rising 2, Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record.

Overview[]

Zombrex is a vital drug for individuals infected with the zombie virus, who must take doses on a regular basis to prevent them from turning. Characters in the series who rely on Zombrex include Katey Greene (in Dead Rising 2 and Case Zero) and Frank West (in Off the Record).

Zombrex is first introduced in Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, during which it must be taken every 12 hours. By the events of Dead Rising 2 three years later, Zombrex’s development has advanced, giving it a 24-hour effectiveness and being branded as Zombrex XC: Extended Care.^[1][2] Zombrex returns in Dead Rising 2: Off the Record with the same role, although it is now Frank instead of Katey who requires Zombrex.

In Dead Rising 2, Case Zero, and Off the Record, the player must locate boxes of Zombrex in order to progress through the story. Zombrex can be obtained in various ways, but are most commonly found in hidden or hard-to-reach places around the map. In Case Zero, Katey must be given Zombrex once during the case Zombrex 1 from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm. In Dead Rising 2, four doses for Katey are required throughout the course of 72 Hour Mode, which must be administered between 7:00 am and 8:00 am. In Off the Record, Frank must take Zombrex, also daily between 7:00 am and 8:00 am, and requires four doses total (five if the story goes into Overtime Mode and is not completed before 8:00 am). If Katey does not get it, she will die, which in turn, leads to a bad ending. If Frank does not get it, the player will receive a game over as Frank turns into a zombie.

Zombrex is expensive due to high research and development costs. This cost is passed on to the pharmacies, which is passed on to the consumer. The government subsidies this cost. Zombrex also does not require a prescription, which leads to hoarding.^[3]

History[]

Isabela Keyes created the drug after escaping the mall in Willamette, based on the original inhibitor drug she created following the events of Santa Cabeza and since re-created to keep her newfound friend, Frank West, from turning. He is later shown to use the commercial Zombrex, implying that Isabela’s original inhibitor drug wore off. This means that despite his moral reservations, Frank has to use Zombrex while the two of them are researching ways to come up with a complete cure.

The drug she initially developed for Carlito Keyes following Santa Cabeza lasted a lot longer than 24 hours (as evident by his scheme to use children as zombie time bombs as well as Frank surviving long enough for the commercial Zombrex to hit the market), so it seems plausible that Phenotrans have intentionally diluted the drug, making it a lot less potent, increasing their profit margin. This is further supported by the future of Zombrex chipping in Dead Rising 3, which implies that the drug in its undiluted state is potent enough to fit a lifetime of the parasite inhibitor in one small chip.

Since Zombrex depends on Queens to be made, Isabela Keyes has been researching on a way to recreate the synthesizing process she initially used when she created the original drug used by Carlito to retard the infection in his time bomb children. Succeeding in doing this would essentially allow pharmaceutical companies to make a synthetic drug, removing the reliance on adult Queens. However, before she could finish this and release it for other companies to use in production, her work was stolen by Phenotrans, her employer. Despite this, Phenotrans has been telling the world that the drug is synthetic and does not depend on zombies or Queens anymore. Also, as revealed in Dead Rising 2: Case West, it is implied that a cure has been discovered, but Dr. Marian Mallon has kept it for herself, refusing to let the world know about it. Therefore, infected people everywhere depend on Zombrex.

In Dead Rising 3, Zombrex has taken on a new form, Zombrex GPS chips. These chips are designed to be surgically implanted under an infected person’s skin, usually via the back where there’s a good concentration of body fat, and routinely dose them each day with Zombrex so that they do not turn. If they do turn, the chip tracks them via GPS. In Dead Rising 3, Marian Mallon is seen to inject herself with Zombrex, and this further supports that she was simply talking about the Zombrex chip in the events of Case West. While this is likely to be a retcon, she never actually explicitly stated that a cure had been found — merely that she hadn’t needed injections for a long time.

It is also revealed that, for infected U.S. citizens, Zombrex chipping has been made mandatory by federal law. An exhibit found in the Museum of the Americas reveals that shortly after the whole chipping concept was introduced, in regards to the new law, the government agreed to pay for the costs of national mandatory chipping, seeing as nobody wanted a repeat of Fortune City and that not everyone could afford Zombrex.

The original Zombrex dosage is still prominent on the streets, as a group of individuals called illegals refuse to be chipped by the government. They say that people that are chipped are living as a prisoner to the government with no right for privacy. The Illegals live «off of the grid» and still use the auto-injector used in previous games.

Zombrex locations[]

Since the Willamette Incident, Zombrex is widely sold in many pharmacies, and it is extremely expensive at $300 a box. It is also administered by government health care institutes and is carried by most ambulances. Dick Jones, a survivor in Still Creek, has some Zombrex in stock in his pawnshop.

In Dead Rising 2 and Off the Record, Zombrex can be found in hidden places, awarded from survivors, defeating Carl Schliff, or buying from pawnshops located in Fortune City, with the price rising in $25,000 increments with each purchase, starting at $25,000. It is important to note that like weapons, the player will lose their supply of Zombrex should they restart the story.

All missions that award the player with Zombrex in Dead Rising 2 are also present in Off the Record.
