Report: Dead Space 3 To Be Set On Ice Planet

Isaac Clarke on Hoth? Maybe. The recent scuttlebutt on Dead Space 3 may reveal the new location and some major plot points for the sequel.

If this ends up being true, keep in mind that the following information will contain spoilers.

Siliconera claims to have word from a trusted source that Isaac crash lands on a snowy wasteland, and eventually makes his way to an unmanned waystation. He eventually runs into Ellie, the one of the few survivors from Dead Space 2’s Sprawl. Ellie, Isaac, and a third survivor are rumored to climb a mountain mid-blizzard, complete with mysterious monster noises. The enemy of Dead Space 3 is supposedly the “hive mind.”

We can’t be certain whether any of this is true or not, but the scenario does sound pretty awesome. Would you play a Dead Space set on a frozen planet?

    I would play that game, but I would play Dead Space 3 even if it was set on a Louisiana swamp planet inhabited by talking cybernetic bears.
  • I hope they don't have some lame frostbite meter... if you don't find a warm enviorment and it fills up, than you die. I can't wait for DS 3. I hope they ditch the MP for a better campaign, though.
  • Sounds like Issac'll just be chilling out in Dead Space 3. ...I'm sorry.
  • i will play just about anything dead space, and that sounds pretty awesome to say the least, i can't wait for more details and maybe a trailer
  • Can't do the alien, zombie games. Just don't appeal to me. Stories are MP are always garbage. IMO. Looks good for the guys who dig games that take no comprehension.

    I really enjoyed what I played of Lost Planet but I hope they don't implement that whole freeze element. It's tough enough battling necromorphs, I don't want to worry about the elements too.
  • reminds me of a terrifying version of lost planet.
  • I love the look of blood on snow.
  • sounds sweet! I just cant wait for some CONFIRMED info.
  • Maybe we can get some new types of creatures infected by the necromorphs. That would be amazing to get more variety.

    Actually, I bet this is because the Unitologists cryo-freeze their dead and have been shipping them off to an unknown location. I bet this is where the Unitologists have been shipping off their dead. It makes sense. I'd bet that there is more Markers there being used for their "transformation" that they have been trying to achieve.
  • oh yeah definitely the game is awesome it even makes Batman scream like a little girl
  • Sounds like a cool change of setting if it turns out to be true. Reminds me of the movie The Thing, which is definitely a good thing.

  • Isn't this just "The Thing" with a Dead Space skin?
  • Looks like I need to get DS 2 after all. I was pretty excited about it coming out but then I had no money. I will definitely play DS 3, even if I have to sleep in a TonTon...
  • Elemental weapons anyone?
  • For me , thats very nice, changing the environment of Dead Space  is good because it doesn't feel repetitive.

  • Bring it on! DS2 is my game of the year so far...but Batman and Uncharted will give it a push
  • Hell yeah, I love the franchise and it sounds like a good change after the Ishimura and the Sprawl.
  • i still want to play dead space two

  • Efffff yeah I would play it.
