EA Working On Not Just Dead Space 2, But Dead Space 3 As Well

The Variety report from earlier today that said there’s a live-action Dead Space movie in the works also has some video game news. Namely, that EA are working on two more Dead Space games.

The report states, “EA launched [Dead Space] in 2008 and is working on the second and third installments”. Sounds clear-cut, but this being Variety (specifically, not Variety’s games blog), you can’t take that for granted. It may be a movie writer getting their wires crossed, and one of those two games is Dead Space: Extraction for the Wii.

But hey, even if that was the case, that means there’s at least one more Dead Space game on the way. And if the Variety writer is right, well, there’s two more Dead Space games on the way.

    Hey EA, telling us there will be a 3rd game kind of takes the anticipation out of what could happen in the 2nd game. Just so you know.

    • Didn’t they tell us from the get-go that it was planned as a trilogy?

      @Mr Waffle..

      maybe, but then again “The Empire Strikes Back” was released and it had already been announced that it wouldn’t be the end, and that didn’t seem to harm Empire.

      Then again, Empire was panned by many critics at the TIME for being overly dark and bleak. They changed their tune later, of course.

      Bioware did it and I can assure you no anticipation has been lost on my behalf in relation to Mass Effect. Also Ubisoft did it and I am still very much looking forward to Ezio’s adventures in Assassin’s Creed 2.

    What, you’re telling me EA are milking the shit out of a franchise?! Who would’ve picked it?
