'Ultimately, all prospective players need to know is this: Motive Studios has succeeded in making the deadspace Remake the definitive way to enjoy the first chapter of Isaac Clarke's journey.' Our 4.5/5 review of DeadSpaceRemake is here! DeadSpace
Reservations about the Dead Space Remake's necessity quickly decay thanks to developer Motive Studio's work to make an already fantastic game scarier, more interesting, and disgustingly beautiful. The original Dead Space was released in 2008 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and much like Capcom's recent modernization of classic Resident Evil games, the Dead Space Remake polishes and reimagines that original launch with current-gen technology and updated mechanics.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Like many players and developers, the team at Visceral Games felt inspired after playing 2005's Resident Evil 4. The original Dead Space was born from that inspiration. However, any players concerned that the original Dead Space's brutal and intense soul would be tainted by additional content and updated graphics will have their fears disappear as fast as a Necromorph into the shadows.
In an early section of the game, the lights fail on the deteriorating Space Mining Vessel causing visibility to drop to near zero. The only light source players have is Isaac's flashlight mounted on his weapon. The music swells, and monsters begin to attack. After a few missed shots, the player must reload, causing their one light source to disappear from the approaching enemies. Enemies can maneuver and disappear in the darkness, especially in areas where Motive adjusted stage layouts.
Combat, Graphics, And Controls Feel New, But Still Dead Space The game's combat has been tailored to replicate the tanky and satisfying action that helped make the 2008 game feel unique. Players must use space engineering tools to dismember the zombie-like Necromorphs, who now have layers of skin, muscle, and bone that tear away in combat. The new peeling system helps determine enemy health to develop the most effective combat strategies.
Large and small characters have received more dialogue to help fill out the world and the franchise's overarching plot. Thankfully, Isaac's added dialogue in the Dead Space Remake never feels out of place. The writing, expanded character roles, and performances never feel like they are trying too hard to make their characters feel more believable and less generic.
