Motive is best known for its work on Star Wars Battlefront 2’s single-player campaign and Star Wars: Squadrons.
As we look to modernize the game, we’ve reached out to dedicated fans and invited them to provide us with feedback since the early stages of production to deliver the Dead Space game they want and for new players to enjoy as well.” Going back to the original and having the opportunity to do so on next-gen consoles excited everyone on the team. “We have a passionate team at Motive who are approaching this remake as a love letter to the franchise. “The Dead Space franchise made a huge impact on the survival horror genre when it was released 12 years ago, and I came to Motive as a fan first to specifically work on this game,” said Phillippe Ducharme, senior producer of Dead Space, in a statement.
Players will experience “an improved story, characters, gameplay mechanics and more as they fight to survive a living nightmare aboard the desolate mining starship, the USG Ishimura, all while uncovering the dreadful mystery of what happened to the slaughtered crew and ship,” EA said in a news release.
The new Dead Space is coming to PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X. Visceral Games’ sci-fi survival horror classic, originally released in 2008, is being remade by Electronic Arts’ Motive studio, the publisher announced during Thursday’s EA Play Live digital showcase.
