Gamers who have been itching to get their hands on the upcoming space-horror from EA can now jump for joy, because the company announced today that Dead Space will be released ahead of schedule. That means that come October 14 you will be able to creep through the remains of defunct space stations and battle the horrors within much earlier than the previously announced October 21. Gamers in Europe will still get theirs on October 24.
The only downside to this is that the early release is only for the U.S. and the console versions. PC users will have to wait until October 20, while once again European PC gamers will have to wait until Halloween.
From EA:
The Dead Space experience is all about surviving in its sci-fi world through strategic dismemberment, so experience the horror before the Necromorphs dismember you. After all, you are never truly safe in Dead Space. When an immense mining ship, the USG Ishimura, comes into contact with a mysterious alien artifact in a remote star system, its communications with Earth are mysteriously cut off. Engineer Isaac Clarke is sent to repair the Ishimura’s communications array, but he arrives to find a living nightmare—the ship is a floating bloodbath, the crew unspeakably mutilated and infected by an ancient alien scourge. Clarke’s repair mission becomes one of survival as he fights not just to save himself, but to return the artifact to the planet … at any cost.
Oooh.. the cold chills have invaded me. I am finally excited about this game.
