Dead Space extended gameplay trailer features a more in-depth look at the reimagined USG Ishimura

A Dead space Anniversary Livestream took place today, followed by multiple previews and an extended gameplay trailer of the upcoming remake.

the PlayStation Blog was one of the outlets that got down to business with the title, and had a lot to say about it.

You already know that there is freedom of movement in zero gravity, no loading screens, it’s very gory and that Isaac is fully voiced. But did you know that he can observe Necromorph transformations in real time and similar to the beginning of Dead Space 2? If not, now you do.

Junction boxes are new to the game and require you to redirect power between different functions of the ship and sometimes you will have to choose between several actions. The game also features locked doors and loot containers that you access after acquiring an upgraded security clearance. Because of this, you may want to go back a bit to open a container you went through before getting clearance. As far as locked doors go, there is one that involves a new side quest.

The Dead Space remake will also feature an intensity director. Basically, it makes ambient noises louder and provides some startles for something trivial, like a pipe bursting. However, it can also trigger a Necromorph surprise attack. It also makes exploration more intense, challenging, and unpredictable. The environment can also change each time you return to a previously explored area, making each experience unique.

This time around, you can expect expanded weapon upgrade paths, and you can upgrade weapons to include attachments by spending nodes.

Of course, you also expect improved visuals, an improved narrative, you can create stasis strategies, use the bench to customize your suit or upgrade your weapons, and the UI is easier to read.

There is more, of course, so you should go to the PlayStation Blog link and read the preview.

You must also give the extended game tutorial on a clock. In it, Senior Producer Philippe Ducharme takes a deeper look at the reimagined USG Ishimura, showcasing key enhancements including updated visual fidelity, the interconnected ship, and more.

Dead Space comes out on January 27 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
