The remake of the horror cult classic, Dead Space, finally has a release date. Originally announced last year at EA Play Live, the 2008 iconic title is being remade from the ground up by Motive Studios, who recently developed Star Wars: Squadron.
Developed by Visceral Games and published by EA, Dead Space is one of the most iconic horror franchises, such as Evil Within, Outlast, and Resident Evil. Set in the 26th-century science fiction universe, the game follows systems engineer Isaac Clarke, who embarks on a search and rescue mission at the USG Ishimura that has gone radio-silent after receiving a distressing message from his girlfriend, Nicole.
The game was universally praised for its horror elements and received two sequels in 2011 and 2013, respectively. More than a decade after the release of the first title, Motive Studios is developing the remake, while staying true to its roots. EA has officially announced a release date for January next year.
In a press release today, EA announced the release date for Dead Space. With a January 27, 2023 release date, the game is set to launch early next year. The game is being developed on EA’s Frostbite engine that is known for its visuals and is certain to create some horrifying scenarios.
Players will once again take control of systems engineer, Isaac Clarke, and follow him on USG Ishimura in search of his girlfriend, Nicole. The survival horror lets players take on the role of Isaac Clarke and utilize his engineering skill to survive, as he discovers the horror that has been bestowed upon the slaughtered and infected crew of USG Ishimura.
