Motive Studio on Being Involved With More ‘Dead Space’: “There Are Ideas, for Sure.”

Published

So, Motive Studio’s Dead Space remake is awesome. And with the positive response the game has received, talk of Motive Studio doing more involving Dead Space has creeped up again.

In a new interview with British GQ, Motive Studio senior and creative directors Phil Ducharme and Roman Campos-Oriola chatted it up about the remake on a variety of topics. The question came up about EA’s previous 10 year lull in the series after Dead Space 3, and if the team had any ideas for what they could do with the property. “For sure, it’s, it’s a hope that we have. There’s interest on my side and I think on Roman’s side in exploring Dead Space more. There are ideas, that’s for sure.”

Whatever comes next won’t be immediate, as the team obviously still has postlaunch work to do, as well as the necessary downtime from working on the remake. “We’re gonna be heading out on vacation and then we’ll sit down and we’ll have those discussions within EA to say, ‘Well, what’s next?'”

The obvious “next” would be Dead Space 2, but who knows? The team could revisit Visceral’s rail shooter Dead Space: Extraction and turn it into a VR game for Sony’s shiny new PlayStation VR2.

Dead Space is out now on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]

While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.

The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.

As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.

Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
