An open world survival horror beat em up video game, Dead Rising 4 is developed by Capcom Vancouver and published by Microsoft Studios for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One. It was released on 6 Dec 2016. The game features Frank West and is set in Willamette, Colorado sporting a Christmas theme coinciding with the current season. But unlike its predecessors, this game does not feature a timer system or a story co-op gameplay. In this guide, we will see about Melee attack.

Melee attack in the game is the basic mode of combat so this guide will show how to do just that.

How To Melee Attack

1. Press the X button on your Xbox One to make Frank swing wildly with whatever weapon he is holding.

2. Make sure the zombies are in close proximity to you to make the melee attack effective.

3. Make sure to have eyes on the back of Frank as zombies may sneak up behind him.

4. In such cases, turn around Frank to make him face the zombie and hit the melee button to put an end to the zombie’s sneaking charade.
