Last night, a report claimed a Dead Space 2 remake had been in the works at EA. However, a subsequent report – which itself follows on from EA denying any such remake was in the pipeline – has poured more cold water on these initial claims. In fact, the whole series is reportedly “on ice”.
Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier has now weighed in to affirm EA’s statement that denied a sequel ever being in development at EA’s Motive studio. “Motive has been on other projects for nearly a year,” Schreier wrote, adding that the developer had instead “explored ideas for a new entry early last year but none were greenlit”.
Writing on social media platform X, Schrier said Motive’s main idea at that time had been for an all-new game in the Dead Space series. The focus wasn’t going to be on remaking the second game, although he did note that “both ideas were explored”.
