Dead Rising 2 Combo Cards Locations Guide with Combo Weapons (Xbox 360, PS3, PC)

Dead Rising 2 Combo Cards locations guide screenshot of Rocket Launcher
Our Dead Rising 2 Combo Cards locations guide will help you find secrets to unlocking all 50 of the Combo Weapons available for Chuck Greene to crack some undead skull with in the game. They are the same for Dead Rising 2: Off the Record Combo Cards & Weapons in Frank’s quest.

Combo Cards tell you what items are needed to combine in order to create an all-new weapon. Weapons can be created in “Combo Rooms” spread out across the various environments throughout your adventure. Each of these Combo Rooms feature a Workbench where Chuck can work his welding magic to create something even deadlier than what he had.

Although a Combo Card is not required to combine items, you will get a Prestige Points (or PP) bonus for that particular new weapon if you have a Combo Card in your possession when you mix two items to create the new weapon. But you are given free reign to experiment and discover new weapons at your leisure whether you have a Combo Card for that new weapon or not. Also, creating your own weapons will give you a scratch card for every combo weapon you create without using a combo card.

Most of the new weapons you can create are logical. For example if you mix a Box of Nails with a Baseball Bat, you get the “Spiked Bat” weapon, which is self-explanatory. However, some weapons are not-so-obvious. If you mix a Flashlight with a “Gem” (found in the Jewelery store), you get . . . . A LIGHTSABER! Er, I mean, a “Beam Sword”. Naturally.

Pro Tip: Try building more Combo Weapons using items from around Fortune City. They’re easy to spot: They all have the wrench icon.
