Switching the setting of a claustrophobic and poorly lit spaceship to a claustrophobic and poorly lit space station, Dead Space 2 continued to make Isaac's life utterly miserable while further fleshing out the game's universe, giving more backstory on the Unitologist cult and introducing new Necromorphs like those creepy babies and the deliberately unkillable Ubermorph. Some fans (read: us) consider the second entry to be the best one in the series, improving on the first but not veering to far off as the third which arguably lost its way. Launching as a fully priced AAA title, the Dead Space remake is also packing a Deluxe Edition alongside pre-order incentives, of which far and away the most enticing is the free inclusion of a Steam copy of Dead Space 2. We're still taking on the role of walking Sci-Fi author tribute Isaac Clarke as he steps - or stomps - into the iconic slit-visor engineering suit and also spines, taking an existentially dreary tour through the doomed USG Ishimura and its conveniently blood-graffitied walls. In the wake of The Callisto Protocol having a rough launch, sci-fi survival horror aficionados look to be in for a treat. Following in the same footsteps of the recent and hugely popular Resident Evil remakes - which are swinging around to RE4 next - the Dead Space remake is more than just a graphical touch up.ĭeveloped by Motive and once again published by EA, the unhelpfully named Dead Space is a grounds-up remake of Dead Space (game companies really need to stop doing this), modernizing, improving, tweaking and expanding upon the setting, gameplay and story of the original. The genre re-defining survival horror title's full remake is just around the corner, launching late this month across a slew of modern platforms. Dead Space is coming back, as zombies are wont to do, and if you pre-order before the January 27 release date you'll get a whole second Necromorph-ridden sci-fi horror adventure for free - all pre-orders of the remake include a copy of Dead Space 2.
