Well, there's not gonna be a Dead Space 2 Remake :-(

.

Despite the original Dead Space getting the remake treatment, the same isn't happening for its sequel, at least not now.

According to the ever chatty Jeff Grubb, a Dead Space 2 remake was in the works at EA. However, the studio has since shelved the project "because the first game had lacklustre sales".

"If you were looking forward to a Dead Space 2, it's bad news. It's straight up is just bad news," Grubb said...

...According to Grubb, this Dead Space 2 remake was in the "concepting phase... pre-production" before it got nixed. Now, EA Motive is now going to be a two-project team, working on Iron Man and Battlefield.

I'm not sure EAs denial is really a denial. They've basically said the game never went into active development, so presumably their might have been some planning or a pitch and then it got dropped. Either way it's not getting made.

Don't believe their lies!

Bluesky

Will say I feel like Dead Space 2 doesn't really need a remake. I played it a couple of years back and it holds up perfectly well. Felt the same way about the first game really aside from a couple of sections (but then I read the remake just has different issues). Both should have proper modern ports.

I picked up Dead Space on PS5 (disc) in a sale some time ago. Really gotta play it; I dabbled with the game on PS3 and the atmosphere was so neat but I kinda ran away crying :lol:

Fired it up the other night, I'm right at the start, looks gorgeous but as I walked all the power went off and I was stood in the dark listening to monster noises, played some Halo instead.
