[Trailer] Electronic Arts Resurrects ‘Dead Space’ For Next-Gen Systems And PC!
The rumours were true. Dead Space is back. Announced today during EA’s EA Play Live 2021 event, Dead Space is in development at EA’s Motive Studios! While EA didn’t elaborate on what to expect, the game is indeed a remake of the 2008 original using the Frostbite engine.
While EA didn’t reveal much more other than platforms, the game will feature “an improved story, characters, gameplay mechanics and more”.
“The Dead Space franchise made a huge impact on the survival horror genre when it was released 12 years ago, and I came to Motive as a fan first to specifically work on this game,” said Phillippe Ducharme, Senior Producer of Dead Space. “We have a passionate team at Motive who are approaching this remake as a love letter to the franchise. Going back to the original and having the opportunity to do so on next-gen consoles excited everyone on the team. As we look to modernize the game, we’ve reached out to dedicated fans and invited them to provide us with feedback since the early stages of production to deliver the Dead Space game they want and for new players to enjoy as well.”
The game is currently slated for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC. No release date as of yet.

After launching last October on Steam, Assemble Entertainment and developer Tainted Pact are bringing their old-school survival horror game Flesh Made Fear to the PlayStation 5 next week on June 25.
Conceived by Michael Cosio, who also created Massacre at the Mirage, Terror at Oakheart and Suffer the Night (and is currently working on The Skin Stapler), Flesh Made Fear draws inspiration from the fixed-camera tension, puzzle-driven pacing, and scarce resources of classic Resident Evil games, while adding its own blend of body horror, conspiracy, and occult terror.
Players take on the role of an elite operative in the Reaper Intervention Platoon (R.I.P.), a covert task force deployed to neutralize Victor “The Dripper” Ripper—a brilliant but deranged former CIA agent. His sinister experiments have turned a desolate backwater town into a nightmare filled with grotesque monsters and mind-controlled thralls. Your mission is clear: eliminate Ripper, unravel his chilling secrets, and survive the horrors lurking in his mansion-turned-laboratory.
You can tackle the nightmare of The Dripper as one of two survivors, each with their own abilities and personal journey. Jack (greater health, smaller inventory) relies on grit and clever instincts to endure the horrors closing in around him, while Natalie (less health, larger inventory) meets the madness head-on with sharp resolve, quick wit, and relentless stamina. Both characters offers unique stats and storylines, enhancing replayability.
Vulnerability is the name of the game in Flesh Made Fear. By reintroducing mechanics like limited saves, a mix of fixed and dynamic camera angles, and restricted resources, the game forces players into a constant state of tension. Every decision – whether to fight, flee, or conserve ammunition – carries weight. This careful design, paired with grotesque visuals and a conspiratorial story, aims to deliver “an authentic yet modernized survival horror experience.”
