Review: 'Dead Space' remake gives a new voice to a recurring ... (WSIU)

Directly inspired by Resident Evil 4, Dead Space expanded on the over-the-shoulder camera and minimalist HUD. But it's the USG Ishimura's implicit storytelling that really makes it a legendary horror setting, on par with Resident Evil 2's police station or Resident Evil 1's Spencer Mansion. Over time, the game will teach you to use your growing arsenal to counter different types of Necromorphs. Sure, he opened up in Dead Space 2 and 3, but Clarke's initial silence contributed to the first game's sense of mystery and isolation. Aside from some script changes, this Dead Space plays nearly identically to the first, with updated visuals and audio that amplify its engaging and terrifying ambience. His dialogue fleshes out some of the story and characters, but it doesn't feel excessive — and he's certainly not as Both are key to survival, and switching between guns, stasis, and kinesis is — quite literally — a blast. The game also trades the original's frustrating 3D map for a 2D one, which makes it much easier to see where you're going. But while it's not exactly new, Dead Space still feels like a proper tribute to the stories that came before it, from Event Horizon to Alien. You play as Isaac Clarke, a systems engineer following a distress beacon sent by the USG Ishimura, a massive ship equipped with mining capabilities that crack open planets to extract their minerals and ores. Your vessel crashes into the Ishimura, your crew members get separated or die, and you'll soon have to fight for your life against unspeakable horrors. Bodies litter the floors, cryptic warnings written in blood cover the walls, and the few survivors have completely lost their minds.

What's different between the Dead Space remake and the original? (Polygon)

In the original, this involved grabbing a keycard off a corpse. These are smaller tasks that have you exploring the Ishimura and filling in some of the world building details through gameplay (rather than just audio and text logs). Gunnar Wright of the original Dead Space reprised his role as Isaac for the remake. [The new Dead Space](https://www.polygon.com/reviews/23571676/dead-space-remake-review-release-date-ps5-xbox-series-x-pc) is a remake, but it’s rebuilt from the ground up. It’s a lot more atmospheric (and spooky) now with volumetric lighting. Everything from character models to the ship itself got a dramatically updated look.

Dead Space Remake Review - Hits The Marker (GameSpot)

The Dead Space remake may not feel entirely necessary, but it improves upon the original with some smart new additions to almost every aspect of its design.

Newcomers and hardcore Dead Space fans will get the most out of the experience, but this is now the quintessential way to play one of the survival horror genre's best. The generational leap isn't as grand and so much about it feels inherently familiar to the 2008 original, such is the way EA Motive has weaved its changes into the Dead Space mold. The peeling system is one facet of the remake's improved graphical fidelity, and it has a delightful impact on each combat encounter. Out of all the revised weapons, however, it's the Force Gun that stands out amongst the crowd. You might set off a trap, using the gravity well to pull a bunch of enemies into one clump before burning them all with the flamethrower or using the Plasma Cutter to break through their now bare bones. I found myself using this and the secondary fire modes on other weapons more often than I ever did in the original Dead Space, largely because they introduce an additional layer of strategy to each encounter with the ship's infestation of Necromorphs. Unlike the aforementioned upgrades, the primary fire modes for each weapon have largely remained the same as in the original game. These mods are scattered throughout the Ishimura, so you're rewarded for searching every nook and cranny of the desolate mining vessel. For starters, the zero gravity sequences now let you leap from the ground and use your suit's thrusters to freely move around each area, rather than rigidly hopping from one surface to another. Much of the script has been rewritten to accommodate Isaac's speech, and the tale it weaves is still engaging. Characters mention the infamous church in a way that feels natural, discussing the sect before they're aware of just how substantial its impact will be on future events. And after reaching the end credits myself, I'm still not entirely convinced it needs to either, yet I'm extremely happy it does.

Dead Space (2023 remake) Review (GamesHub)

The welcome remake of Dead Space brings the grimy, snarling sci-fi horror of the classic game into sharp new relief.

The vastly improved facial animations that play out while your compatriots dole out tasks to you across video calls did most of the heavy lifting to endear me to my little band of survivors. Playing on a High Dynamic Range (HDR) enabled screen increases this effect even moreso, with the inky blacks of the Ishimura’s forgotten and massacred depths providing little solace where they’re rendered with such detail. The Ishimura; the ill-fated ‘planet cracker’ mining ship which provides the staging ground for Dead Space isn’t one of the most unique environments in horror games – if you listed off generic scary places for a video game you’d hit ‘monster-infected spaceship’ pretty quickly. The original Dead Space is such a masterclass of intense atmosphere, varied yet balanced gameplay systems, and satisfying exploration that its remake barely has to change a thing at all beyond a streamlined and ‘loading screen-free’ interpretation of its world. A meshing of satisfying, scary, empowering and atmospheric systems all coalescing into an impressive, elegant statement of cosmic and body horror; a title that planted about as solid a flag as you can on a vision of the future of horror games. Having played the original 2008 release in preparation for the remake, it’s shocking just how modern it feels; a vision with a confidence and clarity we just don’t see as often in video games anymore.

Dead Space Review – A Horror Classic Made Whole (Press Start Australia)

Isaac Clarke is no longer the stoic, silent protagonist, encounters are more dynamic, and the game's setting, the USG Ishimura—an iconic, sci-fi planet breaking ...

The game’s use of light and shadow has been completely overhauled, giving an even more grim personality to the game’s shining star—its world. I’m also part way through my new game plus run and the addition of unique collectibles, stronger enemy variants and an alternate ending are going to do plenty to get me through again. Despite the dynamicity introduced to encounters, it can tend to sap the feeling of dread as the game overwhelms you with numbers rather than fear. Instead, Motive has taken a modern classic and rebuilt it from the ground floor to meet the expectations of ‘today’s gamer’. They’ve also injected pieces of that aforementioned lore into this game’s side missions, managing this time to show as well as tell while confirming a number of fan assumptions left unanswered by the original work. Brands like Silent Hill and Resident Evil have a cachet that has endured decades and they’re undoubtedly mammoths of the survival horror genre, but there’s no denying that Dead Space was an instant classic when it first launched two generations ago.

Critics Love The New Dead Space Remake (Kotaku Australia)

Following its announcement in 2021 and a refreshingly open development period, EA's remake of the horror classic Dead Space is out tomorrow, January.

[compared to a director’s cut](https://www.ign.com/articles/dead-space-remake-the-final-preview), but none of Dead Space’s original primary creators are involved, and the term suggests a level of deference toward designers that EA simply hasn’t shown. The improvements on offer here are substantial, but no remake could succeed to this extent without a rock-solid foundation. In essence, the former portrays the game at its best-looking, in 4K UHD resolution with ray-tracing, but with a 30fps capped framerate. There are new rooms tucked in amongst the old layouts – add-on chambers for a handful of side missions that deepen the fates of certain characters, including Dr Mercer and his awful Hunter. But it is just a part of Motive’s re-engineering: Weapons, characters, and progression have all been rethought, resulting in the best possible version of Isaac Clarke’s trek through a veritable hell — and hopefully the revival of a horror game franchise that flamed out too soon. The peeling system is one facet of the remake’s improved graphical fidelity, and it has a delightful impact on each combat encounter. Yet, despite its strange origins, [2008’s Dead Space](https://kotaku.com/dead-space-review-true-stories-of-space-horror-5068557) would go on to become a massive hit for EA and would become a favourite among survival horror fans due to its creepy, atmospheric horror and ammo-counting action. Dead Space’s main man is humanized even further in the remake by his ability to talk, rather than merely accept his crewmates’ orders without so much as a silent nod of acknowledgment like he did in the original. And this newest Dead Space is also likely to become a classic among fans of the genre, thanks to its [impressive next-gen visuals](https://www.kotaku.com.au/2021/07/new-dead-space-remake-will-be-next-gen-only/), improved controls, expanded narrative, and the added attention to detail. The exception is a surprising change to a memorable moment later in the game – a rework that makes more sense in context to the point that I now prefer it over its original incarnation. But, meanwhile, here’s what other reviews and critics are saying about the latest entry in the Dead Space series. And reviews from various sites around the net suggest the remake is something very special, elevating the original while remaining true to what made the creepy space game so beloved all those years ago.

A remake can also recreate the old game exactly how it was (just with shinier graphics). It makes sense when we consider the fact that it's still a linear game. However, the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes (for the main storylines at least) weren't that much longer than the originals. A remake can stretch set pieces, add new scenarios, and turn tiny maps into atlases – the gaming equivalent of what Peter Jackson did with The Hobbit.

Review Roundup For Dead Space Remake (GameSpot)

The first Dead Space game helped give the horror genre a shot in the arm when it first arrived all the way back in 2008, and 15 years later, ...

"While this is a meticulous and appreciative reworking, a little too much of it seems designed to get in the original's way, to blur its focus and mutate it into an appendage of the omnivorous franchise operation it would become, where everything needs to be written into an on-going narrative backdrop, and genuine ambiguity is minimized. I hope this exceptional revision signals to EA that Dead Space has plenty of gas in the tank and becomes a harbinger for more horrifying stories in this universe." "Dead Space is a visually stunning remake that is both faithful to the original, and modernizes what it needs to. Thanks to Motive, I'm now more open to the idea of Xbox 360-era remakes, and I can't wait to see what's on the cards for Dead Space 2." Despite the fact I've returned to the 2008 original several times over the years and found it to hold up fairly well, my latest journey through the darkened hallways of the USG Ishimura still managed to consistently surprise me and pull me into Isaac's plight far more than ever before, while still satisfying my desire to butcher undead astronauts with an enjoyable arsenal of wildly unsafe mining tools." "It's impossible to expect the Dead Space remake to be as transformative as something like the Resident Evil 2 remake was.

Dead Space remake review roundup (GamesHub)

Reviews for the remake of Dead Space, the classic sci-fi horror game, are very positive. But was it all necessary? The jury's still out.

‘While this is a meticulous and appreciative reworking, a little too much of it seems designed to get in the original’s way, to blur its focus and mutate it into an appendage of the omnivorous franchise operation it would become, where everything needs to be written into an on-going narrative backdrop, and genuine ambiguity is minimised. All of which mainly makes me want to play a new non-remade Dead Space game in 2023 with this production quality. That said, many critics wrestled with their feelings on some of the changes to the game, and whether the game needed to exist at all. It’s easily one of the best modern horror games, and the fresh lick of paint to really bring its grimy, snarling interpretation of sci-fi horror into sharp new relief is very welcome, especially when it maintains such faith in the source material.’ And after reaching the end credits myself, I’m still not entirely convinced it needs to either, yet I’m extremely happy it does. The studio was notably founded by Glen Schofield, who played a significant role in the original Dead Space at Visceral.

Dead Space remake beginner's guide: 7 things to know before you ... (Polygon)

The Dead Space remake rebuilds the 2008 game from the ground up. Our Dead Space beginner's guide will get you (back to) stomping necromorphs in space.

Using the canisters not only saved on a ton of ammo, it made a deadly wave of enemies manageable. If a necromorph dies in an explosion (see above), they tend to take enough damage to drop the item without a stomp. Shooting one makes it explode where it is, and throwing one with Kinesis makes it act more like a grenade. Speaking of ammo, you’re not quite done with a necromorph once you shoot off its limbs and put it down. Stasis slows time, and Kinesis allows you to pick up and throw objects. Within the first couple hours, Isaac will pick up two new ways to interact with the world: the Stasis and Kinesis abilities. Some are as simple as a nice musical swell when you pick up the plasma cutter for the first time or new ways for the game to play with lighting (or the lack thereof). They weren’t in the original, though, so they’ll be a bit of a surprise even if you played the original. Be patient, look everywhere for stuff to pick up (a lot more on this below), and do your best to suppress your instincts to blindly fire at every scary sound. You’re probably never going to be flush with ammo or health packs (especially early on), and anything you do pick up will get used right away. All the story beats, enemies, mechanics, and abilities are the same, but there are a few details that have changed. Considering that people born the same year as Dead Space are in high school now, it’s probably time for a refresher even if this isn’t your first time on the USG Ishimura.

Will there be a Dead Space 2 remake? (Dexerto)

The Dead Space remake is in the books, but will EA now remake Dead Space 2, or will they do something completely different?

[Dead Space remake voice cast](https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/dead-space-voice-actors-for-all-characters-full-cast-2040334/) [Dead Space review](https://www.dexerto.com/reviews/dead-space-review-sci-fi-survival-horror-at-its-most-gruesome-2042624/) [Dead Space New Game Plus](https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/does-dead-space-have-a-new-game-plus-2041531/) [Dead Space ending explained](https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/dead-space-remake-ending-explained-what-is-the-marker-2038652/) [Dead Space everything different in the remake](https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/dead-space-remake-everything-different-from-the-original-2041590/) [Capcom has a similar issue](https://www.dexerto.com/opinion/should-capcom-remake-resident-evil-5-next-2015156/) now when it comes to what game to remake next. It largely depends on the success of the Dead Space 1 remake and if EA decides to make more remakes instead of a sequel. Of course, this is only a pipedream at the moment, as there’s been no official word from EA, but it’s more likely as of 2023 than it has been since Dead Space 3 was released in 2013. Naturally, EA hasn’t commissioned a remake of Dead Space to abandon the series again, the remake exists to breathe new life into the franchise. Interestingly, the publisher shipped a copy of the original Dead Space 2 with Steam pre-orders. The original Dead Space fits into this group nicely, the only question is – what happens now? Or will they finally get around to making a Dead Space 4 if the remake is successful?

This isn’t just a simple graphical upgrade, but an overhaul on a significant portion of the mechanics and storytelling, crafting a better and more gratifying universe to dive into.” – “The Dead Space remake is exactly what a remake should be.

The Dead Space Remake Doubles Down on the Gross-Out Horror ... (Esquire.com)

Easily one of the most frightening video games ever made, Electronic Arts' space-survival-horror title built upon the successes of Resident Evil and Silent Hill ...

and it’s a testament to the extremity of the game that I’m about to write these words… A press release from EA mentions that new game features an “expanded and enriched narrative.” According to the writer, Jo Berry, this means, “looking at the story with an entire franchise’s worth of hindsight. As MacMillan explains, with relish, “Rather than cut off a limb with a couple of blasts, we’re now able to peel the skin and the muscle and the sinew off that limb. I’m still in the earliest stages of the Dead Space 2023, so it’s hard to say whether or not the game has sprung this new trap on me yet.

Is this version of the game scarier? The Ishimura’s interior is a series of harsh metallic tunnels and shadow-strewn decks. However, when you tilt Isaac’s flashlight into the corner of a room, only to find a Lurker crawling furtively toward you along the wall, all comparisons are forgotten. Now, faced with the graphical capabilities of my PS5, and the fact that my wife is unlikely to offer the same moral support, the game may be too much to handle. Violent horror is having a moment across a whole slew of visual media—and the audience’s appetite for blood has been freshly awoken. Likewise, televisual horror—emboldened by the looser regulations and deep pockets of the major streaming services—is going for our collective throats. And this is no mere remaster, repackaged with a patina of improvement.

Dead Space remake ending explained: What is the Marker? (Dexerto)

The Dead Space remake has a somewhat somber ending, but those who are familiar with the series will know that's not the end of the story.

At the end of Dead Space and the Dead Space remake, Isaac escapes and destroys the Isimura along with the Marker that caused the whole mess in the first place. The story continues in Dead Space 3 where the aliens accelerate their plot to locate and send their Brethren Moons to attack Earth. Therefore, in the Dead Space remake, the Nicole you’re talking to was an alien intelligence all along, one that is not only manipulating Isaac, but other humans in an effort to spread the contagion to their home planet. The Marker dug up on the Aegis VII human colony managed to infect the workers and the crew of the Ishimura. Here’s what the Dead Space remake ending means. The good news is the Necromorphs, the Hive Mind, and the Marker that causes the outbreak have all been destroyed.

That mode only unlocks after completing Dead Space once, meaning players are in for a long journey to see the remake’s secret ending for themselves. In the sequel, Isaac wakes up in a hospital in a settlement called the Sprawl with no memory of the past three years. The woman he’s been talking to throughout the game isn’t Nicole, but someone else entirely; Isaac has been hallucinating, a condition brought on by The Marker, the alien technology at the heart of the Necromorph infection and the mass hysteria that consumed the Ishimura crew. Dead Space players who have peeked at the achievements and trophies for the remake know that there’s a secret ending, but it requires a good amount of work to get there. The woman that he loves, the person that brought him to the USG Ishimura in the first place, Dr. It also adds to the original Dead Space, including a secret “alternative ending” that provides stronger connective tissue to the original game’s sequel, 2011’s Dead Space 2.

Dead Space remake: Everything different from the original (Dexerto)

Dead Space (2023) is a very faithful remake of the 2008 original, but there are some key differences between both games.

While most can be played alongside the main story, the Dead Space remake features a selection of side missions that can be completed throughout the game. However, [the game](https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/dead-space) is absolutely not a simple HD remaster, instead, Dead Space (2023) is a from-the-ground-up remake of the original game. Fans of the original Dead Space will remember the iconic battle with the Leviathan, only in the remake, there are two battles. The devs were true to their word as the Dead Space remake’s combat feels more satisfying, detailed, and gross than the original. Isaac can then complete this task as a side mission, but we won’t spoil the ending or fates of both Jacob and Cross – however, it is significantly different from the original game. Johnson, this time a female engineer, is injured in the initial docking procedure and is told by Hammond to wait with the ship while the other four look for survivors.

Dead Space Remake Hints at Dead Space 2 Remake (Game Rant)

Some post-game Dead Space remake dialogue Easter eggs hint at a potential Dead Space 2 remake that remains unannounced by EA Motive.

Dead Space 2 players will explore many areas of Titan Station in the sequel's campaign, but it's also the home of an important storyline moment that makes it canonically important. Beyond the potential lore ramifications of missing these tidbits, they may also not see the references to a Dead Space 2 remake that other fans have uncovered. Dead Space players that choose not to participate in the new game plus addition may miss out on text logs that didn't occur during the initial campaign.

Dead Space: What Happens In the Remake's Secret Ending? (Den of Geek)

The Dead Space remake is here and (spoilers) it's very good. While the remake actually features a number of clever changes, the biggest addition to the game may ...

The final Marker Fragment is thankfully pretty easy to find. This secret ending seems to confirm that the Dead Space remake team intends to honor the lore of the second game and wanted to connect the titles a bit more cleanly. You should find the final Fragment on that shelf. The secret ending supports the idea that Issac wasn’t just crazy at the end of Dead Space but was being controlled by the Markers to do their bidding and spread their influence. In that ending, Issac defeats the Hive Mind and makes it back to his ship. This Fragment is also found in Chapter 10. In the back of that area (behind the sign), you’ll find a Fragment sitting in a corner. It’s pretty hard to miss this one, and it’s the first Fragment a lot of players may find casually. That should open the door to the Deluxe Bunks section. There, you’ll find another shelf that looks similar to the one you had to break to find the first Marker Fragment. There, you’ll find the Mineral Samples room. If you can’t find it, look for a “Break Room” sign next to a door on the third floor of the bridge.

Dead Space Remake: How to Unlock and Survive Impossible Mode (Den of Geek)

Many horror games reward players who try to brave their terrors multiple times on different difficulty modes. Each entry in the Dead Space franchise, ...

So why would anyone brave Impossible Mode in the Dead Space remake? That or you can save scum your way to victory by quickly pausing and exiting the game before you die, then reloading your save file, which should still be set to Impossible if you did it fast enough. The only way to “continue” on Impossible mode is by restarting the game from the beginning and learning from your mistakes. Still, if you make it out of this difficulty mode alive, you will earn the chance to play the “Impossible” mode. Before starting Impossible mode, the game gives players a warning. Wait until you play the game on Impossible Mode.

The DEAD SPACE Remake Secret Ending Fills in Some Franchise ... (Nerdist)

In the Dead Space remake, fans can unlock a secret ending. But this alternate conclusion does more than just add new footage.

The secret ending of the Dead Space remake reveals that the Markers had infected Isaac deeply throughout the game, eventually turning him into its infection-spreading puppet. He tells a mutated version of Nicole that he has to “build a little something.” The two of them embrace to culminate their twisted exchange that hints at no good to come, and the secret ending of Dead Space concludes. The components of this ending are similar to the original Dead Space ending. Nicole was, in fact, dead the whole time Isaac was on the USG Ishimura.
