“We’re also actually creating the entire game as one sequential shot,” says Senior Producer Philippe Ducharme. Thanks to technology advancing since the original, Motive are now able to turn the Ishimura into a “fully interconnected” ship too. Some of the secondary characters are also being brought into the game more, in what Motive are calling “narrative side-quests”.

Part of this has been giving Isaac a voice, just like in the later games. Motive say that the core of Dead Space will remain the same, but among the changes coming to Dead Space is “re-injected” lore from the original’s sequels and the comics.

The Dead Space was announced at EA Play 2021. They’re also finding time to flesh out the story with extra side quests. A blog post from the developers shares how they’re reworking the game’s setting of the USG Ishimura, along with bringing protagonist Isaac Clarke into line with Dead Spaces 2 and 3. Motive Studios have detailed some of the ways that their upcoming remake of classic sci-fi survival horror Dead Space will differ, just as new screenshots of the game have cropped up on an early Xbox Store listing.
