Easter Eggs (Dead Rising 4) | Dead Rising Wiki | Fandom

Tetro's Comics & Collectibles located in Old Town

The Jill Sandwich trial, which requires Frank to eat a sandwich equipped with the Jill Valentine costume, is a reference to the infamous line said by Barry Burton in Resident Evil where he saves Jill and says the exact same thing.

The Zero Exo Suit can be unlocked by beating the game, which strikingly resembles Zero from the Mega Man X series. Additionally, a giant Zero Mech can be found in Kiichiro Plaza.
