Dead Space 4 not in development, series future uncertain
"Will there be ano🎀ther Dead Space game? Who knows?"
Dead Space 4 isn't in the works, but that doesn't mean the series is dismembered for good. EA Games Label Executive Vice ജPresident Patrick Söderlund spoke to about the future of Visceral's flagship series last week.
澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rumors circulated in March that work on Dead Space 4 was canned after poorer-than-expected sales for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dead Space 3. EA quickly dismissed the rumors as "patently false." Whether the game was ever in development, it cert🙈ainly isn't now.
EA may let the series cool for a while as the publisher transition𒉰s to next-gen development.
"Is that team working on a Dead Space game today? No they're not," Söderlund said. "They're working on something else very exciting. You have to think of it from that perspective. Is it better to put them on the fourth version of a game they🅷've done three previous versions of before? Or♛ is it better to put them on something new that they want to build, that they have passion for?"
At least one of Visceral's teams is starting on a Star Wars proj💧ect, as part of EA's exclusive licensing deal with Disney. The studio's Montreal branch, which developed 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel, was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:shut down in February.
"Will there be another Dead Space game? Who knows? Have we killed it? No, of course not," Söderlund said. "But right now that dev team is foc💧used on something else that you and other gamers will be very happy with."
