Dead Space is being developed exclusively for next generation consoles and PC, raising the level of horror and immersion to unprecedented heights for the franchise through stunning visuals, audio and controls powered by the Frostbite game engine while staying true to the original.
Fans will experience an improved story, characters, gameplay mechanics and more as they fight to survive a living nightmare aboard the desolate mining starship, the USG Ishimura, all while uncovering the dreadful mystery of what happened to the slaughtered crew and ship
In Dead Space, Isaac Clarke is an everyman engineer on a mission to repair a vast, sprawling starship, the USG Ishimura, only to discover something has gone horribly wrong. The ship's crew has been slaughtered and infected by some alien scourge...and Isaac’s beloved partner, Nicole, is lost somewhere on board. Now Isaac is alone with only his tools and engineering skills as he attempts to uncover the nightmarish mystery of what happened aboard the Ishimura. Trapped with hostile creatures called “necromorphs”, Isaac faces a battle for survival, not only against the escalating terrors of the ship, but his own crumbling sanity.
EA and Motive Studio announced some of the talented voice actors bringing the remake of sci-fi survival horror classic Dead Space to life.
The announcement was made through the official Dead Space “The Bench” Instagram account, which has been challenging fans to complete puzzles to unlock exclusive Dead Space news and digital content, most recently including an Isaac Clarke Cosplay Guide. Followers of The Bench, known as the Comms Relay Crew, receive sporadic mission briefings from Chief Engineer Ariel Rousseau, a new Dead Space character aboard the USG Ishimura who needs the Comms Relay Crew’s help to restore communications to the ship.
