The rooms and hallways can be very dark, with sometimes the only light source being the flashlight Isaac has when he aims his gun, and you never know when a monster will pop out from a wall to attack. Traversing through the Ishimura was one of the most nerve-wracking experiences I’ve had within any video game, and I loved it. The game doesn’t waste time bringing the action to you, as your crew is quickly attacked by alien-like necromorphs, splitting you up from the rest of your crew, and leaving you alone on the dark and eerie ship. As Isaac Clarke, one of the repair technicians on the mission, you make your way through the desolate corridors of the Ishimura trying to find out what went wrong on the ship.

Now, almost 15 years later, the beloved series has been rebuilt from the ground up with a full-on remake of the original video game developed by Motive Studio – and with substantially updated visuals, more immersive gameplay, and a respectful retelling of the original story, this remake brings new things to the table for both long-time and new fans to enjoy, and establishes itself as the definitive way to experience the twisted and thrilling story.ĭead Space finds a crew of maintenance technicians dispatched on an emergency mission to the USG Ishimura, a high-class spaceship that has mysteriously lost all communication. Fans of the survival horror genre are likely familiar with the Dead Space franchise, originally released in 2008.
