More Isaac for your buck
If you’re keen on revisiting theDead Spaceseries ahead of the remake releasing this month, the Steam pre-order has a neat incentive. Pre-ordering theDead Spaceremake on Steam before January 27 will net you the second game in the series,Dead Space 2, for free.
As spotted byVG247, theSteam pre-orderhas a special deal going. Picking upDead Spacethrough either its base version or slightly-more-expensive Digital Deluxe version will net you a free copy ofDead Space 2. And if you’ve already pre-purchased the remake, you should receive a copy ofDead Space 2.
While it might feel a bit disorienting to get the sequel to the original as a tie-in for the original’s remake, this does net you two absolutely stellar sci-fi survival horror gems. TheDead Spaceseries has garnered acclaim over the years, and for good reason. The first two are prime examples of action-oriented sci-fi horror. The third game? Well,that’s a different story.
Space-based savings
It’s a nice upside for those who want to dip back into the series ahead of the remake, or maybe have the second lined up to play after they finish the remake. That date isn’t too far off, either. EA Motive’sDead Spaceis set to launch on June 24, 2025 for PC, as well as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
While a remake of one of sci-fi’s survival classics is already a strong pitch, survival horror fans are also probably hungry forDead Space‘s return.The Callisto Protocolstumbled out of the gateat the end of 2022. And now, a remake of a major inspiration is just around the corner. It could be a big one for survival horror fans. We’ll see how Isaac and the crew fare on new tech in just a few weeks.
