If this classic survival sci-fi horror didn’t raise your neck hair before, then EA’s Dead Space remake was worth the wait. Set to launch on the 27th of January, 2023. It promises intriguing new gameplay features with the return of the everyman engineer Isaac Clarke on his mission to repair the USG Ishimura.
Rebuilt from the ground up, the classic survival sci-fi horror game promises exceedingly improved graphics, but that’s not all that awaits its fans. It remains authentic to its compelling vision, and the remake features crisp, haunting visuals and enhanced audio that has been creatively reimagined to bring forth a higher quality and immersion. Players will learn more aboard the USG Ishimura with freshly added narrative elements.
What’s the Story
The main character is an everyman engineer Isaac Clarke on his customary mission to fix an immense mining starship. But a nightmare is about to unfold aboard the USG Ishimura. The entire crew has been infected and slaughtered, and his girlfriend seems to have disappeared on board the starship. Trapped and alone to battle for survival with only your engineering skills and tools against Necromorphs and your deteriorating sanity.
Will you survive the enigma and escape, or will you end up lost in space?
Can you Engineer an Escape?
With no backup or weapons, Isaac has no choice but to protect himself from the Necromorphs with any high-tech mining tools he can get his hands on. Strategically figure out how to use Ishimura’s malfunctioning systems to your advantage while solving puzzles and leveraging Isaac’s comprehensive knowledge of the tools to dismember creatively spine-chilling creatures.
Intensified Classic Sci-Fi Survival Horror
The remake of this classic sci-fi survival horror is a magnificently created, equally soul-stirring world that is easy for you to literally and figuratively get lost in from the start. As seen in the trailer, you will feel the intensified fear with every mysterious step this everyman engineer takes. My senses were heightened and amplified as I listened to Isaac’s exertions, breathing, and heartbeat. The environmental effects are astonishing, such as particles, smoke, and light followed by crisp, clear sound.
The official synopsis for Dead Space: Remake 2023:
In Dead Space, Isaac Clarke is an everyman engineer on a mission to repair a vast, sprawling starship, the USG Ishimura, only to discover something has gone horribly wrong. The ship’s crew has been slaughtered and infected by some alien scourge…and Isaac’s beloved partner, Nicole, is lost somewhere on board. Now Isaac is alone with only his tools and engineering skills as he attempts to uncover the nightmarish mystery of what happened aboard the Ishimura. Trapped with hostile creatures called “necromorphs”, Isaac faces a battle for survival, not only against the escalating terrors of the ship, but his own crumbling sanity.
