Those who have already pre-ordered a digital copy of Dead Space can pre-load the game now. The game has a download size of 31.91 GB on Xbox Series X|S and 31.110 GB on PS5. The current update version on PS5 is 01.000.001.
Previously, the resolution and frame rate on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S as well as the PC system requirements for Dead Space remake were revealed. It was also revealed that the Dead Space remake will feature less violence compared to The Callisto Protocol, based on the respective ratings received by both games from the Australian Classification Board.
Third-person sci-fi horror shooter Dead Space is a remake of the original game from 2008. The year is 2058, and Isaac Clarke is searching for his girlfriend, a doctor who once worked on the mining spaceship USG Ishimura, when he discovers that it has been taken over by Necromorph aliens.
The remake is developed using the Frostbite Engine, with all the systems being rebuilt from the ground up and new graphical features, like volumetric and dynamic lighting, being added. The game will also benefit from the solid-state drive systems found in newer consoles to provide a seamless transition between levels without the need for loading screens.
Dead Space was originally created by Glen Schofield and Michael Condrey, and developed by Visceral Games. It was released for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows as the debut entry in the series.
