Electronic Arts (EA) is working on an all new sci-fi horror game for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. "Dead Space", as the name suggests, is set in deep space, and is currently under development by EA's Redwood Shores Studio.
Being described as a 'third-person survival horror game', the game promises the ultimate in psychological thrills and gruesome action, according to EA. In "Dead Space", players get to don the hat of engineer Isaac Clarke, who's sent on a routine mission to do a repair job on a mining ship in deep space. Except that the mission takes an awful turn when Clarke discovers that the ship's been ravaged by an alien infestation. Clarke is left with no option but to fight his way through the dead silence and darkness of deep space in order to stay alive. Glen Schofield, executive producer of the game, said that with nearly every other person being a huge fan of the horror and sci-fi genres, they were compelled to create the most terrifying game they could to keep the player on the edge of his seat the entire time. With an official Web site reminiscent of the 'Aliens' movie franchise, the game is expected to release sometime in autumn next year for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
