This would be the first time we’re hearing about a previous-gen version of the game.
DEAD SPACE REMAKE PS4 PS4
More than a gnarly visual effect, the detailed damage offers feedback about how close players are to snapping off a limb and downing a necro. According to PlayStation Latinoamrica, the Dead Space remake is headed to the PS4 in addition to the PS5, Xbox Series XS, and PC. Gory details: Every blast of Isaac’s weapons tears away flesh, muscle, and eventually shatters bone.

My reverence for preserving ammo was renewed throughout the rest of my playthrough. I eventually succeeded using stasis to slow the Infector’s spread and stomp out the threat before it got out of hand. The sequence forced me to make careful use of stasis and melee to survive. I paid the price later in chapter 2 when I ran dry on ammo during an intense sequence in the morgue, with an Infector running rampant generating fresh necromorphs. I sold a few ammo stacks early on for credits and to make inventory space. Resources matter: I know the 2008 Dead Space well and admit I was feeling a bit cocky during my playthrough. Plus, the menu text and icons look even more crisp and clean in 4K. Bringing up Isaac’s projected menu in real-time preserves the immersion and immediacy. In-universe UI: Back in 2008 Dead Space’s projected user interface was ahead of its time, and today it still feels futuristic. It’s to be determined if this incorporates new weapon mechanics, or simply additional enhancements to damage, reload speed, ammo capacity, etc.
DEAD SPACE REMAKE PS4 UPGRADE
Motive keeps players on their toes with the Intensity Director, which will ratchet up suspense with creepy noises like creaking vents, surprised like bursting pipes, and unexpected necromorph attacks.Įxpanded weapon upgrade paths: What good is hunting for bonus resources without a place to invest them? New weapon upgrade items can be attached to the Plasma Cutter, Pulse Rifle, and more to add extra upgrade paths to spend nodes. Intensity director: But don’t let your guard down just because you’re returning to known territory. One locked door even involves a new side quest revealing a bit more about Isaac’s missing partner, Nicole. This incentivizes players to return to previously cleared areas to uncover resources and upgrade materials. Incentivized exploration: Locked doors and loot containers have been added to the Ishimura, which Isaac can access after acquiring upgraded security clearance. It’s a feast for the senses and draws you in deeper to the experience. A combination of effects explode into action as the giant machinery kicks online – giant pieces of the machine rumble violently, sparks fly as metal grinds, the huge swinging arm casts large shadows against the orange auxiliary power lights. Later in chapter 3 Isaac restarts the Ishimura’s centrifuge. Big moments feel bigger: The vivid lighting and visual effects make dramatic moments feel even more impressive.
