“The Dead Space franchise made a huge impact on the survival horror genre when it was released 12 years ago, and I came to Motive as a fan first to specifically work on this game,” said Phillippe Ducharme, Senior Producer of Dead Space. “We have a passionate team at Motive who are approaching this remake as a love letter to the franchise. While EA didn’t reveal much more other than platforms, the game will feature “an improved story, characters, gameplay mechanics and more”.
Announced today during EA’s EA Play Live 2021 event, Dead Space is in development at EA’s Motive Studios! While EA didn’t elaborate on what to expect, the game is indeed a remake of the 2008 original using the Frostbite engine.
