Dead Space Remake was appreciated by players and journalists, but we should not count on further games in the series. EA stopped work on the development of the universe.
Jeff Grubb mentioned yesterday that EA Motive was developing Dead Space 2 Remake, but due to poor sales of last year’s remake, the game was canceled. A representative of Electronic Arts commented on the matter, which was gaining more and more publicity, and questioned the information presented by the journalist.

The topic was commented by Jason Schreier, who confirmed that Electronic Arts has suspended any work on the development of the Dead Space universe. The IP was to be “shelved for a second time”.
While news of shelving the sci-fi horror series broke this week, EA made the decision last spring, according to people familiar with the project.
Schreier confirmed that the developers had been working on ideas for a new installment of the series for several months, but Electronic Arts did not give the green light to develop the game, so the creators were delegated to other projects.
After completing the Dead Space remake, which was released in January 2023, a small team at Electronic Arts subsidiary Motive spent several months developing ideas for a new installment in the series. However, these plans were never given the green light and fell through before they could go very far.
Information about the Dead Space series has returned, as EA Motive announced this week that it is focusing on two projects – Iron Man and the new Battlefield. Part of the team was delegated to help DICE develop the shooter.
