    A true remake that will please fans of the saga as well as new players. Everything is working great, in addition to following the original game, several new features are in the game, Isaac now speaks and bringing in the old voice actor was a perfect move. A respectable remake that will be a springboard to remake the second title in the franchise.

    Eines der besten Remakes überhaupt. Sowohl für Neueinsteiger und alte Hasen. Man kann nur hoffen das Dead Space 2 dieselbe Liebe und Aufwand zuteil wird. Und dann ein frischer besserer Dritter Teil.
    Leider sind hier viele Trolle die mit fadenscheinigen Argumenten 0/10 geben. Wtf. Hatte mir das schon gedacht. Callisto Fanboys die Rache nehmen wollen weil keiner ihr schlechtes Spiel mag. Lol.

    Most of these negative reviews here are by people who haven't even played it or they are angry that they can't pirate it, so now they whine here and on steam forums.

    I have never used Metacritic, but reading these pathetic negative reviews made me make an account, just to confirm that this is indeed a good remake. I'm huge fan since 2008, those people who hate the remake, don't sound like fans at all. Pretty sure they just look for stuff to complain about.

    The definitive Dead Space experience. Whether or not you played the original 2008 Dead Space, you’re sure to have a good time with this game. So glad to see this now-classic being brought back to life with welcome new additions such as side missions and more dynamic action sequences. Highly recommend!

    - Technical revamp of the thunder for a masterful atmosphere
    - changes and variations in the course of the adventure, love it.
    - Well done random events in a ship to roam freely
    - Confrontations still as jubilant and brutal

    Amazing remake.

    Even as a non horror fan myself I really found joy in how great the game immerses you and how amazing it is to experience the story and lore bit by bit.

    EA Motive please remake the entire trilogy, I'd love to see it through a new and even better lens.

Sorry RE2 (still very nice) and RE3 remakes (meh), but it's time to step aside, Dead Space holds the crown now!

    I can't believe i'm saying this and i'm saying this as one of the biggest fans of Resident Evil 4, but Capcom really needs to bring their A-Game, if they want to be on same level with this masterpiece.

    Fully explorable ship makes the game so much more immersive, you can go back any time to any part of the ship (of course you need to unlock that part first, but most of the ship is unlocked by chapter 6/7. Side quests are also nice addition. I mean, why not? I enjoyed them.

    Overall every boss fight is better than the one from the OG (and they were already solid in OG). Zero-G free flying is one of the most fun i have had in a long time. There's so many areas you can explore thanks to updated Zero-G.

    As the old saying goes, nothing is perfect, but this one gets very close. This is a must buy for anyone who likes Horror games.    … Expand

    Felt like coming home. Isaac and the necromorphs are back with a brand new paint job and a thorough tune up. Loved the atmosphere of the ship, the eerie sounds with the subtly mixed in sounds of monstrous cries. The flushed out lore, taking what was built up from three main entry games to expand the world of Dead Space.

    Looking at all the recent and upcoming horror game remakes and sequels, I was interested in but not particularly excited for the Dead Space remake. I was a fan of the first two games, but it had been some time since I’d played them… and in this horror game renaissance, the Dead Space remake has a lot of competition.

    Now? I can’t think of a game that has made me want a sequel so badly, so    Looking at all the recent and upcoming horror game remakes and sequels, I was interested in but not particularly excited for the Dead Space remake. I was a fan of the first two games, but it had been some time since I’d played them… and in this horror game renaissance, the Dead Space remake has a lot of competition.

    Now? I can’t think of a game that has made me want a sequel so badly, so fast after completing it. This remake makes a compelling case that Dead Space is not only worthwhile, but has an essential place in gaming right now. Why? Because Dead Space strikes a nearly perfect balance between action and horror, and demonstrates to me, like no other game has, that fun and fear do not always have to compete. Usually, they do—action games empower players, while survival horror games constrain them to create a feeling of vulnerability. But Dead Space manages to maintain real tension even as it gives you the tools to deftly take out small hordes of necromorphs. A lot of that has to do with the visuals and *superb* audio design and music—not to mention what Dead Space does best, immersion—but it’s also the franticness of combat as you juggle weapons and try to keep necromorphs at bay. Dead Space could benefit from being scarier in some ways—it’s certainly not the scariest horror game I’ve played—and I’d also like to see a sequel (a DS2 remake) expand further on the combat and find new ways to empower the player. The key here is that this remake makes me think both are actually, simultaneously possible. Story — the game’s narrative isn’t an all time great, but it is fully convincing. It feels seamless, and benefits a lot from the game’s commitment to immersion in all its aspects (from the in-universe UI to the single continuous camera shot approach). The writing is good, the voice work is great.

    Combat — every single weapon is a blast and is useful in some way. This might be the most fun I’ve had with a flamethrower in a game (they often suck). The combat becomes bliss when you’re juggling multiple weapons, using their alt-fires, and mixing in telekineses and stasis. The dualsense features are very well implemented and add a lot to the feel of combat.

    Graphics and audio — the game looks fantastic, with some minor caveats. It doesn’t reach the levels of fidelity that one might hope for in a current-gen-exclusive remake. The lighting is great overall, but transitions from light to shadowed areas can seem off at times. The audio design, however, is top tier. Play with good headphones and turn on 3D audio.

    Performance — I experienced no serious issues. The game appeared to maintain solid 60 fps except in one single area, a large elevator that you return to a few times. As necromorph corpses started to pile up in that elevator, the framerate started taking serious hits.    … Expand

    Haven't played the original and kind of glad I didn't. This game felt like it was made for 2023. The controls are fluid and a lot less restricted as I've experienced in Callisto Protocol. The world feels griping and very immersive. The combat feels modern, fun, and very satisfying. I couldn't find one complaint about the game.

    Dead Space succeeds at everything it tries to accomplish. It maintains enough of the originals DNA to feel true to that experience, while offering enough new additions to feel fresh for returning players. It is an absolute masterclass in story, character, gameplay, atmosphere, and most importantly, horror.

    A perfect recreation of the original game, merged with the more sleek combat flow of Dead Space 2. I completed this game twice, both on PS5 and Xbox SX as the core combat loop is incredibly fun even on harder difficulties.

    Such a great time for horror fans.

    I did however experience 2 hard crashes throughout my numerous playthroughs, both of which were on PS5.

Adaptive triggers work with each shot from each weapon in their own way with a vibration that gives an even greater experience as if you were in the game. Save point also plays a role to save exactly where you want because you never know where the check point will take you back.

Sometimes you can encounter an awkward autosave moment when your about to die. This happened to me twice on my initial playthrough. 2. The map is a bit awkward to skim through each area. 3. The impossible mode should have been more aligned to the hardcore mode in previous games, allowing one save for 10 hours approx is a bit much and I reckon there should be atleast three saves. I don't ever game for five or so hours straight (I know alot of people do). 4.

    the only bad thing i got to say about the game is the extra dialog for Isaac some small story changes and the fact that they added context and side quests in my opinion the whole beauty of dead space 1 was i don't know what is going and the main character barely talks so the reactions are mine and not his

    but to be honest for the devs dead space 2 does have a lot of dialog from Isaac so im guessing they are playing around that would wish that they would add a silent mode for Isaac
    they also changed some of the story missions for the better and i couldn't be happier *looking at you turret section*

    the game does suffer from stuttering and some frame drops here and there

    all in all in spite of of some nitpicks and some technical problems here and there the game is perfect super faithful to the original and is the best way to experience dead space 1

    If your a fan of the original Dead Space you'll be happy to know the remake is really good.
    It stays true the survival horror roots of the original but improves the atmosphere, the grapics
    and the sound design. Aslo the stoy is altered for the better. I think the story makes more sense now.
    overall Dead Space Remake is a must play for horror fans.

    História interessante, gráficos bons, iluminação show… O jogo traz uma experiência diferenciada na qual tomar sustos a todo momento é divertido e deixa o coração disparado. Só não cabe nota 10 pela física do jogo nas explosões, nos inimigos ao morrerem e na gameplay que parece um pouco ultrapassada em relação aos jogos atuais. Mas fora isso, um excelente jogo.

    If we are starting to talk about plot of the game, i must admit a new breathtaking direction of cutscenes, and how they evolved from original.The plot is nearly the same as it was in original, but - from the start of the game we can see Isaacs face, and they’ve rebuilt final plot twist right before final boss. But i think for new players, this games plot will be really interesting and it will stimulate to finish the game. And also developers added some side-quests, that expand already perfect lore to a new level.
    Also i would like to admit amazing reworks of bosses, such as second fight with Leviathan, that became a complete challenging bossfight comparing with the original. Also for me, bossfight with Hunter was much more challenging and more interesting than it was in original.
    Overall, theres nothing more to say, if you played the original i highly recommend playing this game, and if, on a gods name, u haven’t played original game - Dead Space Remake is a must play for you. A masterfully crafted horror game, with interesting story and challenging gameplay deserves your attention.

    This is a dope game, especially since I never played the original trilogy. The rumble features and sound are the best I've experienced yet on Series X. The only complaint is that they corridors and rooms get repetitive quickly. Despite that, the zero-g combat is tons of wonky fun.

Including security clearances allows the player to not have to horde nodes just in case we stumble upon a locked door and makes revisiting areas of the ship more worthwhile. Upgrading weapons is just complex enough to be fun without being a chore (looking at you, Dead Space 3).

    This is how remakes earn their keep. I genuinely hope this game is a financial success so this team can tackle Dead Space 2, then nuke the original and truly remake - to where the IP/NIL is really all that holds over - Dead Space 3... perhaps finally delivering on an epic conclusion to this series that never happened thanks to the video game grim reaper that is EA.    … Expand

The setting, pacing, and structure felt very fresh and well planned especially for those times. I was a little cautious of the newly released remake, mainly due to EA's current reputation, and was not initially planning on playing through this story again. But I saw the positive buzz and decided to go for it and am pleased to say that it is a great showing and a good improvement on all the baseline factors that made the original game great.
    The gameplay is very tight if keeping to standard 3rd person horror shooter conventions. The combat is tense and focused in short adrenaline rush fueled bursts of hectic gameplay. This is all fueled by the best in class atmosphere and sound design. The massive, monster overrun ship you are exploring is literally breaking at the seams, creaking, busting pipes, falling debris, etc. all add to the tension that the game is trying to build. As you get to later sections of the game you begin to hear screams and whispers constantly as the main character starts to fall under the effects of the marker, the alien artifact that was brought on board and caused all this carnage.
    The story of dead Space is your typical sci-fi horror dreck. As previously mentioned this seemingly dangerous marker was brought on to the ship because the captain and many of the commanding officers are members of the church of unitology, a religion that believes these markers will help them transcend to the next plane of existence, or something like that. The game does a great job through text and audio logs explaining why this church and religion is dangerous and is mostly based around tricking their flock into donating money and possessions while hoarding power. For all effective purposes they are Scientology.
    I do hope that this leads to some new games and experiences within the dead space universe. While there are now a few more examples of this genre done right, Prey (2017) being the main example, this is still an area that can see some exciting and great new developments in the years to come.    … Expand

You slowly edge down the hall,As you clunk down a familiar hallway, that you had already trekked before, you notice something is different. It’s not as well lit before. Heavy, dense fog has filled the halls. The lights are flickering, betraying your already clouded vision. All you have for a light source is your flashlight on your Plasma Cutter, which is also being obscured by the fog. You slowly edge down the hall, tense and on edge, waiting for something to pop out. Your RIG (health) is flashing red. One hit will kill you.

    BANG. A nearby vent breaks violently, screams emerging from down the hall. Frantically, you look and wait for an inevitable creature to reveal itself. As a shadow travels towards you with a blood thirsty drive, you fire your shots in a panic towards the figure. It breaks into a dead sprint, screaming pain and rage as it barrels. Finally you can see it: it bears human resemblance, but it is of horrific composition. Its mangled face has been peeled by your cutter, revealing what used to be a humans skull. Its arms have also been hit by your cutter and thin bone is shown from its arm. Now these arms are weapons, sharp, sword like bone protrude from its arms. In one feel swoop, it cuts your head off despite your heavy duty armor. Hooked yet? This game is perfect for you. Dead Space, at its core, is a haunted house built on the principle of giving you just enough to keep you alive. Dead Space Remake, at its core, is a haunted house built on the principles of giving you just enough to keep you alive, but instead of it being a haunted house, it’s a living, breathing nightmare. If you thought to yourself that Dead Space didn’t need a remake, you would have been right up until this game was released. Dead Space Remake hits the mark nearly perfectly, improving several flaws while adding to the formula.

    Graphics:

    First things first, visually the game is stunning. The colors are vibrant but keeps its industrial/sickly look. Attention to detail has improved drastically, whether it’s the laser coming from your weapon or the drag tenacles (once you kill one, look to where it grabs you. It shocked me.)

    On performance, there is not too much detail taken away. The game plays butter smooth, hardly any stuttering. On Graphics, frame rate is sacrificed, but it feels exactly like old Dead Space. The lighting is gorgeous. The volumetric fog works perfectly in limiting vision. The way blood sticks to Issac now after stomping on a corpse is shockingly real. Everything about the visual aspect of this game is fantastic.

    I will include this apart of graphics, but the animations is a main gripe I have. They are extremely stiff and unnatural looking. Zero G is extremely noticeable, Issac is not as smooth floating through the air. It’s easy to ignore, but I wish it would have been more buttery. Dead Space 2 is twice as superior when it comes to animations.

    Story:

    The story has not changed much, but noticeable shifts in how the story plays out makes much more sense. I won’t go in to detail to avoid spoilers, but I’ll say that certain characters you never encounter are now alive to help you tackle certain areas. It helps that this improves the already great story.

    Voice Acting:

    The voice acting is a double edged sword. Issac now gets a voice apposed to not, and it’s implemented perfectly. It’s gritty, raw, but logical. Jacob Temple is a returning voice actor, he was fantastic as well. Most voice actors have been replaced that have lost some performance, like Nicole and Kendra (although Kendra’s acting seems to improve towards the end. I actually started to really enjoy her). In other words, we gained some, lost some, but in the end I think it was a slight improvement overall.

    Combat and Exploration.

    Combat has not altered much either, but there are some major QOL changes that have been implemented. Kinesis has improved, as well as movement (which is faster. It feels much better compared to DS1). Weapons have also been balanced much better. The flamethrower and ripper are my personal favorites. Squirt some flames on an enemy, then rip them apart with a levitating saw blade.


    Exploration, on the other hand, is brand new. You can now back track to areas that had locked supply closets before. These are opened with security clearance instead of power nodes, allowing no risk of you using them all. You think you cleared the medical deck? Think again. Areas will still have monsters that might or might not spawn. You never know. The Intensity Director will drastically changes certain areas, complete shutting off lights, introducing volumetric fog, rupturing certain vent covers, or even adding the sounds of screams. It will ALWAYS keep you on edge because you never know when an alien Zombie will rip your face off.

    Summary:

    Dead Space Remake is a near perfect love letter to Dead Space. It’s scare factor is cranked up, and the game is a blast from the past waiting to be beat the hell out of.    … Expand

    Isaac Clarke's original adventure is back in a new format, which has more depth in story and freedom in terms of gameplay. As a result, the game is recognizable, yet not the same which makes for a nice result. The game also has impressive graphics and the audio is unnervingly strong. That the game has some minor flaws we take for granted, because this horror adventure is recommended to everyone.
