Dead Space Remake arrived worldwide this past January 27 and dazzled critics and audiences. But will there be a Dead Space 2 Remake too?
The euphoria for Isaac Clarke’s horror adventure has given us back one of the best survival horrors of all time. However, many fans of this saga wonder if EA Motive is also considering making a remake of Dead Space 2.
Is the Dead Space 2 Remake in development?
Well, straight to the point:
- There has yet to be any official news that has confirmed the existence of a Dead Space 2 Remake.
That is to say; EA hasn’t announced that the EA Motive studio is working on the Remake of Dead Space 2.
That is different from saying we’ve got nothing to hold on to.
There are some nods in the Dead Space Remake to its direct sequel.
Fans have already found certain clues that could indicate or portend the existence of a Dead Space 2 Remake.

Clues that point to a second remake
First, we have a new text log that can be found through the New Game + option.
In this second round of Dead Space Remake, players can find a log that reveals a conversation between two Ishimura workers. These workers mention Titan Station as a desired destination. This station is where the events of Dead Space 2 take place.
Secondly, suppose you complete Dead Space Remake on its most incredible difficulty (on Extreme). In that case, we can unlock the secret weapon Hand Cannon in the next game. This weapon was available in Dead Space 2 but not in the original 2008 game.
- As you can see, these winks or clues are direct references to Dead Space 2. They have been included in this new Remake on purpose.
- This does not mean that EA Motive plans to remake the second game. Still, it is striking that they have left this series of secrets for players to discover.
At the moment, we know that Dead Space Remake is selling very well. So, they may encourage EA to give the green light to a remake of the sequel.
Dead Space Remake is available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series.
