Description

Dead Space is a Sci-Fi 3rd-person survival horror game, in which you play Isaac Clark as he journeys through the USG Ishimura fighting the dead flesh of the crew and trying to find answers.

In Dead Space there is no HUD. All the weapons were originally designed to cut rock and extract metals and minerals, and they are Isaac's only defense against the varying hordes of necromorphs, the disfigured and horrifying ex-members of the crew of the USG Ishimura. On his journey he'll discover the events that have passed on the cracked planet below, deal with zero-G puzzles and strategically dismember enemies.
