EA's Response to Remake Rumors

"We don't usually respond to rumors, but there is no truth to this story," an EA spokesperson told IGN. We have also reached out to EA for further comment.

What Does This Mean for Dead Space?

Reports suggest that EA and Motive were planning a Dead Space 2 remake, following the success of their 2023 remake of the original Dead Space game. However, these plans have allegedly been put on hold due to unsatisfactory sales.

The team behind the remake is now said to be focusing on the popular Battlefield series instead.
