After players discovered that preparing the highly anticipated Dead Space Remake on Steam rewards them for a free game in their library. The free game is Dead Space 2, meaning players can now finish the first game and run straight to the sequel. Dead Space 2 isn’t a remake and is the original title released back in 2011 on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
The free Dead Space 2 is not available on the Steam store at the time of this posting. The sequel to Dead Space will only cover the original, which was originally released on the PS3 and 360 in 2008. The Dead Space Remake is coming up in the PlayStation 5, Xbox X/S and PC. Dead Space remake was rumored for some time before becoming officially announced in 2021. The developers of the Remake gave fans the first look at the title in the Dead Space Livestream back in March 2022. EA would later announce the game would get released on January 27 and officially went gold in December 2022.
The Remake is being developed by Motive Studios, a company owned by Electronic Arts (EA). The Remake is inspired by the story of a mining engineer called Isaac Clarke, who was stuck in a mining starship called The USG Ishimura. My friend, Isaac, is a mutant, and Isaac must go through all three parts of the earth to find the missing girlfriend, Nicole. Isaac Clarke original voice actor Gunner Wright returns to play a classic.
Dead Space was critically acclaimed for its intense atmosphere and large selection of customizable guns. The weapons allowed gamers different ways to slay their enemies and made the title a must-play for horror fans. The game has two sequels, but the franchise is still unstoppable since the final Dead Space 3 DLC in 2013. The Dead Space Remake is the first Dead Space content release in almost ten years.
