Dead Space remake is one of the most beloved horror games fans have been waiting for. With a mixed reception for Callisto Protocol, fans were left wanting more.

Fortunately, the remake is not far from release, as it arrives on January 27, 2023. The game will have players step into the shoes of Issac Clarke aboard the USG Ishimura, a vast sprawling spaceship in desperate need of repairs.

The game has been built from the ground up and is ready to serve a new generation of players while retaining its roots. The danger lurking in every corner, the stranded feeling amidst swathes of space, and the scarce ammo to fend off the nasty necromorphs are all present in this game.

Finally, fans and new players wondering whether their PCs can run this nightmare fuel with ease can have a look at the system requirements.

PC players won't receive a physical copy of the game like their console counterparts. They will have to redeem the code on the EA code redemption website. The collector edition can only be purchased from the Limited Run Games store.

Fans can get their hands on a life-sized Issac helmet with working lights that are a nice touch. All orders of the collector’s edition are non-refundable and can't be canceled after purchase. Therefore, players need to think this through before spending such a hefty amount.


The recently released launch trailer excited everyone for the franchise’s return. Players are hoping for a smooth launch, and their hopes have been cemented with the trailers living up to the hype.
