Over on the EAVision YouTube channel, the final video of their four-part Dead Space mini-series ominously titled “A Journey Through Terror” was just released. This mini-series of videos was produced as a promotional and informative campaign to recap Isaac Clark’s journey through the Dead Space universe. This final video, “The Future: Dead Space 3”, prepares both new and old players alike for what is to come in the latest installment. While the previous videos (“Isaac Clark’s Journey”, “The Art of Scares”, “Gameplay”) focus on plot recaps and design choices, this last video brings us up to speed on everything we need to know before diving into the newly released Dead Space 3 and hints at what we can expect to see in the game.
On the run from EarthGov and hiding out in a new area, New Horizons, Isaac and Ellie are trying to find ways to stop the Markers. Unfortunately, Ellie has gone missing. Accompanied by new characters, Captain Robert Norton and Sergeant JohnCarver, Isaac must search for Ellie and find a way stop and the spread of the Markers. To make matters worse, a Unitologist named Jacob Danik has organized his followers into an uprising that threatens to topple the government and unleash Markers across all occupied space. Isaac, Carver and Norton barely escape the zealots and head to the freezing wastes of Tau Volantis, Ellie’s last known location.
Here, part four of the mini-series shows new strains of necromorphs, explains the highly anticipated co-op features, weapon crafting and customization, and the brand new cover system. Fans of the series will be also excited to hear about and see the addition of human enemies in the form of armed EarthGov soldiers and religious Unitologist zealots. The video stresses the importance of Isaac learning a thing or two from his past encounters. After surviving two Necromorph infestations he is more proficient in combat and can now crouch to use cover and dodge roll away from danger. The video also introduces the new universal ammo system in Dead Space 3, new features to the engineering Benches that are hallmark to the franchise, and the introduction of the new atmosphere of low visibility that comes with a snow environment.
