With limited updates online, several "Dead Space 4" news are speculating that publishers have cancelled plans to create the new game.
However, an article over at Gamespot disproved the rumors, and has assured fans that the 4th instalment is underway.
"The Dead Space series is not dead, and is in fact an "important" IP for publisher Electronic Arts, Visceral Games general manager Steve Papoutsis says. Speaking with Kotaku UK, Papoutsis said there is a lot of love for the series at EA," read the article.
The survival horror RPG first made its debut in 2008, and has managed to start a following because of its interesting gameplay.
Bloody Disgusting has recently asked fans what they wanted to have in ''Dead Space 4." Gamers' responses varied, but some commented that a gameplay similar to "Dead Space 2" would be ideal.
Here's what they had to say:
HIGHBREED LIZARD KING
"Dead space should have a collection imo like all 3 remastered games with new different necromorph designs and creatures with randomly generated horror and horror in general and also I want the necromorphs to be more challenging and scarier because they were pushovers in the previous games I want there to be a necromorph that can violently one hit kill you and I want there to be a necromorph that when you run from it, it shoots out a tentacle and trips Isaac and drags him to it and u have to shoot the tentacle to be free. I just want dead space to be the best sci-fi horror shooter there is with lots of disgusting gore and fucked up lookin death scenes and necromorphs dead space has ALOT of potential hopefully they will see this and take it into consideration"
WD Jackson
"No more co-op, less action, more scares. Basically back to the style of the first game"
Daniel Rodrigues
"It should be closer to the second game, which is the best imo, even though I love 1 and 3 as well."
In terms of an actual release date, the makers of "Dead Space" has not made an official announcement as of writing. However, video game junkies are hoping for a 2017 (if not earlier) release date for the new game.
Rumors are already speculating that the new game will be made available on Xbox One and PS4. No confirmation has been made regarding the said rumor.
