Dead Space Remake Gets First Gameplay Trailer

Electronic Arts and EA Motive have revealed the first gameplay trailer for the long-awaited Dead Space remake. 

To escalate the hype surrounding the reboot of the beloved survival horror franchise, EA Motive has gone ahead and lifted the veil on the Dead Space remake. Specifically, the gameplay that potential buyers can expect to see when the game drops on January 27, 2023.

So, what's new with the 2023 iteration of Dead Space? Well, besides a major graphical overhaul, EA Motive has also announced that the game will play out as “one sequential shot.” This means, unless you die, the story will play out like a single movie, with no cuts or loading screens.

“From the moment you start the game to the moment you end the game, there are no camera cuts or load screens—unless you die,” senior producer Philippe Ducharme mentioned. “The Ishimura is now fully interconnected, so you can walk from Point A to Point Z, visit the entire ship, and revisit locations you've already completed to pick up things you might have missed—that's all new. It's now a completely unbroken experience.”
