Current Events > Rumor: Dead Space getting remake/reimaging

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rumours of a new Dead Space game appear to be growing, as EA has updated the official Dead Space YouTube channel for the first time in years.

It's only a small change, but it is a significant one, with the official channel art changing from the official Dead Space 3 logo, to more generic-looking key art of Isaac Clarke in his Advanced Suit RIG from the Dead Space 2 cover art. The change was pointed out by Twitter user Sierral07, and the timing is certainly interesting.

That's because rumours of a new Dead Space game being in the works popped up just last week, with GamesBeat journalist Jeff Grubb reporting that EA Motive, developer of Star Wars Squadrons, is working on an established IP that fans will be happy with, making certain hints towards Dead Space in the process. The rumour has since been corroborated by Gematsu and Eurogamer, with Gematsu stating that the game is due to be a reimagining rather than a sequel to Dead Space 3.

Grubb reported that the new EA Motive title is due to be revealed at the upcoming EA Play Live, which kicks off on 22nd July, so we don't have too long to wait to see if these rumours are true or not. We really hope they are, and you can read why we think EA should bring back Dead Space here.

A Dead Space remaster would be awesome but it has an even worse ending than the Mass Effect Trilogy.

Apparently it's a remake like RE2.

Which I honestly find a bit strange but I'm interested.

Please, please, please.

The end of the DLC was SO GOOD. And they end it on THAT! Ugh.

I hope so

Can't blame them after the train wreck of a third game. Though that was more due to EA interfering.

I get that but Dead Space is still pretty modern.

I also feel like they could simply set the game on a new ship/colony/whatever with a new horrific threat. It's space. Like a reboot that's still set in the same universe. But I suppose they'll probably go the Alien route and it'll always be about the marker and cutting the limbs off fleshy zombies.

I didn't play 3 though and apparently Earth gets infected so maybe they had to go with total reboot.

I feel like they'll make it suck, but we'll see. I LOVE Dead Space 1 and 2.

---

would be happy with a remaster of 1 and 2, fucking great games but a remake would also be sick, if done right.

---

I really liked Dead Space but probably wouldn't bother playing a remake or whatever.

---

Just leave it alone god damn it you killed it already.

I fucking love this series and am glad its not dead

but Im so fucking sick of remakes and remasters. Theres no reason to remake/remaster 360/PS3 era games. Its just straight up laziness
