Dead Space 2 and 3 Remakes: EA Asks Players for Their Opinion
2023-02-27
Today, the release of the Dead Space remake, which rocked the game world back in 2008, came as a big success. This reimaging of the cult sci-fi horror classic has contributed to the series once more becoming one of the most talked-about franchises in gaming. As such, reports from an unexpected source confirm that Electronic Arts is now considering giving the same treatment to the second and third installments of the series.
The source in question is Dillon Rogers, a creator of the award-winning stealth game Gloomwood. According to Rogers, Electronic Arts is sending out a survey to select gamers about their interest in potential remakes of Dead Space 2 and 3. This revelation follows an Easter egg in the newly released title, which alludes to a possible remake of the second part of the series. To the surprise of many, however, the survey also mentions the possibility of remaking the franchise's third installment.
The popularity of the Dead Space remake could explain why Electronic Arts is looking into creating remakes of the second and third parts of the series. However, there are some, such as the composer of the music for the new game, Trevor Gureckis, who are of the opinion that the Motive Studio should instead be focused on developing the fourth installment.
Released on January 27th, 2021, the “old-new” Dead Space is currently available on PC, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PlayStation 5. Whether or not more remakes of the iconic game will ever be released is still an open question. All we can do is wait and see what Electronic Arts has planned for the future of the franchise.
In conclusion, Electronic Arts' survey asking about the remakes of Dead Space 2 and 3 proves that the franchise is still popular among gamers all over the world. With the success of the remake, developing more projects of this type seems like a logical move. However, there are some who feel that the Motive Studio should rather be engaged in creating the fourth installment of the series.
