TheDead Spaceremake will receive a brand-new trailer on Thursday, January 12 at 8am PT, which will air live on the franchise’s official YouTube channel. The wait is nearly over for survival-horror fans to get their hands on theDead Spaceremake for themselves, with the release date right around the corner.TheDead Spaceremake is one of the first major new game releases of 2023, scheduled to launch on January 27 as a next-gen exclusive game. While PS4 and Xbox One gamers that have yet to upgrade their consoles may be disappointed that theDead Spaceremake is skipping their platforms, this way the game won’t be held back by older hardware. In turn, this should mean that theDead Spaceremake will perform better and look better than if it was a cross-gen release.RELATED:Dead Space Remake Will Come With a Free Steam Copy of Dead Space 2Since theDead Spaceremake is a remake of a game from 2008, it doesn’t necessarily need frequent trailers, gameplay reveals, or deep dives. However, there is still some interest in seeing theDead Spaceremake in action prior to its official launch, so fans will likely be excited about the trailer dropping on January 12. The trailer itself is billed as the official launch trailer, which is another strong indication that fans shouldn’t have to worry about any last minute delays. With theDead Spaceremake finishing development a month ago, though, it’s safe to say most fans weren’t worrying about a potential delay anyway.
Nothing else is known about what this newDead Spaceremake trailer will entail, though the description on the video provides a brief plot summary of the game. As noted by the summary, theDead Spaceremake will see protagonist Isaac Clarke exploring theUSG Ishimura, finding the crew decimated and himself at odds with a dangerous alien threat. This could be a sign that the launch trailer will help set up the game’s story, but it’s also possible it will focus on gameplay instead.
The official tweet announcing theDead Spaceremake launch trailer includes a brief video of Isaac Clarke being yanked down a hallway by a tentacle. This appears to be a remade version of the infamous tentacle scene from the originalDead Spacegame, with vastly improved visuals, darker lighting, and some new area designs. HardcoreDead Spacefans will likely get a kick seeing how the game has evolved in the remake through these recreated scenes and other changes that are being made, like howIsaac has a voice this time around.
