Steam Users Get ‘Dead Space 2’ as Pre-order Bonus for ‘Dead Space’ Remake
As if you needed an incentive to pre-order EA’s upcoming remake of Dead Space, it’s now been revealed for Steam users that you’ll be getting a nice little bonus in the form of the original Dead Space 2! All you have to do is pre-purchase Dead Space between now and when the game launches on January 27th.
For those who have already pre-ordered the remake on Steam, no need to fret. The new offer will cover you, as well. While it’s kind of a bummer that it’s exclusive to those who pre-order the Steam version (sorry, Epic Games Store folks), those who snag the game on PlayStation or Xbox have the opportunity to grab the Collector’s Edition from Limited Run Games, which comes with a bevy of goodies on its own.
It’s also kind of strange that EA would offer up the original Dead Space 2 as a pre-order bonus instead of the original. But we can’t complain, seeing as how awesome Dead Space 2 is after all these years. Plus, if things go well, EA may just decide to forge ahead with a remake of Dead Space 2. You never know.
The Motive-developed Dead Space remake is set to arrive January 27, 2023 for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series.

Horror Action-Adventure Title ‘EONA’ Appearing at Gamescom 2026; New Gameplay Trailer Released [Watch]
With gamescom 2026 right around the corner, developer/publisher SUPER AC has revealed that their upcoming horror adventure game EONA will be making an appearance at the show, which takes place from August 26-30. In addition, the team has revealed a new gameplay trailer, as well as announcing that the game will launch “just a few weeks” after gamescom.
Those attending gamescom will be able to play the final version of EONA at the SUPER AC booth, located in Hall 10.1, Booth A043. If you’re not able to attend, you can always check out the demo for the game on Steam.
EONA centres around the eponymous girl, who after a failed spell, has her soul split into two, with one half residing in a mysterious puppet. Eona must enter the castle of the evil fairy Mélusine and recover an artifact that is the only hope of saving her mother. But the path through the castle comes at a cost. To achieve her goal, Eona must uncover the castle’s secrets… and ultimately confront Mélusine herself.
Eona wields the Puppeteer’s Cross, a stolen artifact that allows her to manipulate the souls of the castle’s servants. By altering their behavior, redirecting their patrol routes, and disrupting the castle’s order, she can turn its own inhabitants against it. She can also swap between her human body and her puppet form, with each form granting unique abilities that are essential for delving deeper into the castle, reaching inaccessible areas, and uncovering its hidden secrets.
Blending stealth, exploration, puzzle-solving and soul manipulation, you’ll use Eona’s supernatural abilities to overcome obstacles—but never lose sight of your own body, which is completely vulnerable when using her puppet form.
In addition to Steam, EONA will also be launching on the Epic Games Store.
