The Dead Space remake launches on Steam and the Epic Games Store on January 27th for £50/$60/€60. The Intensity Director’s mostly intended for times you’re revisiting areas of the now freely roamable Ishimura. This is meant to unsettle you as you ramble with Isaac around the hulking abandoned spaceframe of the USG Ishimura, throwing random Necromorph enemies at you or setting off environmental effects. One of these is something called the Intensity Director, which creative lead Roman Campos-Oriola detailed back in October. Motive say they’re trying to capture the survival horror atmosphere of the original Dead Space with their remake, but they’re adding in a few twists of their own. There'll be more than a decade’s worth of graphical changes to account for between the remake and the sequel, though.

Playing through the Dead Space remake and rolling straight into Dead Space 2 and 3 might feel less jarring in that sense. The remake brings the original Dead Space in line with its sequels by giving protagonist and armoured engineer Isaac Clarke a voice, unlike the 2008 version. If you’ve already pre-ordered the Dead Space remake before the Dead Space 2 giveaway became a thing then don’t fret, you’ll still receive the game. Watch on YouTube Motive's Dead Space remake has a few surprises of its own.
