Awesome Dead Space Limited Edition for PS3

Kris Erickson • Jun 17, 2010 • Comments ()

EA is preparing an exclusive Limited Edition of Dead Space 2 for the PS3, the company announced at E3 this week. The Limited Edition pack will include the 2009 Wii game Dead Space Extraction, the prequel to the entire Dead Space saga, now featuring support for the PlayStation Move motion controller. Launching January 25, 2011, Dead Space 2 promises to unleash a truly epic Action Horror experience that will bring the psychological thrills of deep space to a terrifying new level.

This PS3 version of Dead Space Extraction has been improved over the Wii version, offering full HD graphics. The original on-rails shooter was well-received by Wii fans, garnering a respectable metacritic score of 82. Dead Space Extraction on the PlayStation 3 will offer the entire single-player game but will add trophy support, as well as co-op gameplay using the new PlayStation Move motion controller. Players will be able to use the standard Sixaxis controller if they wish, but it is clear that this game was designed with motion control in mind. We're excited about this offer and we're sure it will be an attractive prospect for Move customers this winter.

Dead Space Extraction will also be sold separately as a standalone game via the PlayStation Store.
