If I had to put together a list of my favourite new IPs from the seventh console generation, the original Dead Space (2008) would share the top spot with 2012’s Dishonored. It arrived three years after Resident Evil 4 laid rock-solid foundations for the third-person survival-horror genre, giving Visceral Games (formerly EA Redwood Shores) time to refine mechanics, add a dismemberment-based twist to combat, and wrap it all up in a terrifying audiovisual package. Despite the increasingly dated visuals, I’ve replayed it many times and it holds up so well my brain struggles to accept there’s been a 15-year gap between it and Dead Space (2023). With that said, I’ll try to explain why I feel Motive has created the definitive version for new and returning players – even if I feel not all the changes are for the best.

0:44 - Do you want to know more?
5:03 - A little more action-horror, a little less survival-horror
9:00 - Blood, guts, and too many tendrils
11:48 - The (mostly) definitive version
