"Dead Space is a visually stunning remake that is both faithful to the original, and modernizes what it needs to. Thanks to Motive, I'm now more open to the idea of Xbox 360-era remakes, and I can't wait to see what's on the cards for Dead Space 2." - Phil Hayton VGC - 4/5 "It's ever so slightly rough around the edges, and Isaac Clarke now looks like Adam Sandler for some reason, but it's a respectful rework that'll hopefully mark the franchise's triumphant return. Despite the fact I've returned to the 2008 original several times over the years and found it to hold up fairly well, my latest journey through the darkened hallways of the USG Ishimura still managed to consistently surprise me and pull me into Isaac's plight far more than ever before, while still satisfying my desire to butcher undead astronauts with an enjoyable arsenal of wildly unsafe mining tools." - Tristan Ogilvie PCGamesN - 9/10 "With its stunningly redesigned spaceship, smartly and subtly enhanced story, and spectacularly reimagined action scenes, Motive Studio has managed to successfully breathe new life into the seminal sci-fi horror universe of Dead Space. Controls, visuals, performance, and the clunky 3D map have all been improved this time around." - Joseph Yaden IGN - 9/10 When it comes to the overall layout of the Ishimura, the story, art direction, and gameplay design, Motive doesn’t stray far from the 2008 version, and it doesn't need to. "The improvements on offer here are substantial, but no remake could succeed to this extent without a rock-solid foundation.
Newcomers and hardcore Dead Space fans will get the most out of the experience, but this is now the quintessential way to play one of the survival horror genre's best." - Richard Wakeling Inverse - 10/10 The new side quests might leave a lot to be desired, but every other addition contributes to a remake that stays true to its progenitor while also improving upon it in a number of ways. The generational leap isn't as grand and so much about it feels inherently familiar to the 2008 original, such is the way EA Motive has weaved its changes into the Dead Space mold. "It's impossible to expect the Dead Space remake to be as transformative as something like the Resident Evil 2 remake was.
