In the third part of “Dead Space” you play again as Isaac Clarke, an engineer wearing RIG (Resource Intergration Gear) armor. Fight necromorphs (people infected by an unknown cosmic virus) using often improvised arms which resemble tools than real weapon.

“Dead Space 3” takes you to Tau Volanti, an icy planet where Isaac Clarke (after escaping from Sprawl, a station on Titan’s orbit), along with Sergeant John Carver (a new character in the universe) are going to stop the plague of necromorphs once and for all.

While the game includes its key elements, such as holographic interface conventions or option of “fragmenting” your enemies (it is possible to blast off limbs or head), it has undergone a complete modification. The game shifts towards more action-packed production than a scary horror.

Dead Space 4 would've been huge and diverse, former developer says

An open world, customizable spaceships, and Necromorphs creepier and faster than ever – that’s part of what players could've expected from Dead Space 4. If only it hadn't been shut down.
