They come up with a plan to find the location of the ancient alien machine.īecause Norton is incredibly jealous of Isaac and Ellie, he decides to contact the Unitologist leader and bring him to Tau Volantis. Upon arriving planetside, Isaac, Carver, and the rest of the crew gets split up, but meets up in an old SCAF facility that was investigating the markers over two hundred years ago.

Much of the game takes place on the marker homeworld of Tau Volantis, a frozen planet that was once investigated by humanity over two hundred years ago. Isaac reluctantly goes along with Ellie’s plan to stop the marker signal. Turns out, they got a tip about a planet that could very well put an end to the marker threat once and for all, but the team is led by Isaac’s ex. So when Edward Norton of EarthGov comes knocking Isaac isn’t exactly happy. The world is in shambles as Unitology has grown to extreme lengths managing to overthrow much of EarthGov in an attempt to kickstart convergence. Isaac is now in hiding and wants absolutely nothing to do with the markers anymore (and who can blame him?!). Storyĭead Space 3 picks up a couple of years after the events of the second game, in which Isaac and Ellie managed to escape the Necromorph outbreak on the sprawl. But was it really as bad as people say?įull spoilers for the Dead Space trilogy. The final game in the trilogy made some massive changes to the very core of the franchise, and not all of them paid off. Meanwhile, Dead Space 2 pretty much perfected the action horror genre. This isn’t really surprising, considering the original strong Resident Evil 4 influences made for a terrifying new IP. It’s hard not to see why, since the franchise went on a long hiatus ever since its release. Thankfully, the remake has successfully managed to bring the franchise back from the brink, with a phenomenal recreation of the original game.ĭead Space 3 is now ten years old and is considered by many to be the weakest in the franchise. After a long hiatus, and a somewhat disappointing successor in The Callisto Protocol, we’ve finally seen the return of the franchise in the new Dead Space remake. It’s one of my all-time favourites, sitting up there with the likes of Resident Evil. It’s a series that perfectly blends action and horror in a way no other game series has done since. The Dead Space series is up there with the best in the genre.
