According to a recently revealed listing of possible achievements, the Dead Space Remake may have an alternate ending.
The alternative ending hasn't been confirmed by publishers EA or developers Motive but eagle-eyed fans have seen they'll be in a position to generate the “Reunion” trophy by unlocking “the alternative ending on any issue mode”.
No additional information have been revealed about what the choice ending will involve, or how you can unlock it, however with Dead Space Remake being released a few weeks (January 27), fans won't have to wait long to find out.
The full list of 48 trophies available in Dead Space Remake was recently shared on TrueTrophies, with players able to accrue achievements by completing different chapters from the game on certain difficulty levels, as well as collecting weapons, logs and schematics. Trophies may also be achieved by killing a particular number of enemies having a specific weapon or tearing off limbs.
The original ending of Dead Space is pretty bleak, with plenty of fan theories being shared by what it, and the happy easter ! from game developers, all mean.
Elsewhere, it had been revealed last year that EA Motive's upcoming Dead Space Remake will include “hundreds” of potential encounters made to scare players who're going back to places they have already progressed through.
Speaking to NME, Motive senior producer Philippe Ducharme shared that because of certain immersion-oriented changes that have been made to the initial game, they behind the remake has required to add more content for players to find as they explore the USG Ishimura.
“Now you're not traversing through trams or having breaks between chapters, which was something which we desired to do in order to increase the immersion,” explained Ducharme. “Dead Space was an amazing game for immersion, exactly how should we push that?”
Ducharme also shared that the remake's developers were keen to prevent adding anything that would “offend hardcore fans” from the original Dead Space.
