There are some games that, despite publisher silence, are pretty much assumed to be in development. Dead Space 3 is one of them, and even though Electronic Arts has not formally announced anything, the game has gone up for pre-order at South African retailer BT Games.
BT Games, the same retailer that has been taking pre-orders for God of War 4, unfortunately seems to have taken down the pre-order page for Dead Space 3. The original page still has some information present, as it is listed as the “latest release in the Dead Space franchise” and is being published by… 2K Games? Yeah, that’s gotta be a mistake.
There’s also no pricing listed on the page, and any attempts to pre-order the game redirect to a page regarding the purchase of used titles. Looking up “Dead Space 3″ with the site’s search engine also yields no result. Sounds like BT was either taking pre-orders on a game that doesn’t exist, or Electronic Arts forced them to take the page down. Interestingly enough, the pre-order page is for a PS3 title, so maybe we’ll end up seeing Dead Space 3 before the next generation arrives.
Unlike last week’s Crysis 3 leak, we doubt this story is going to end with EA announcing the game a few days later. Though if they did that, I would be really happy.
Dead Space 3 is said to be in development at Visceral Games, and will reportedly make use of DICE’s Frostbite 2 Engine. While the game has not been formally announced, there’s been plenty of news trickling down to hint at another entry in the franchise. Dead Space fans everywhere are certainly hoping for the return of their favorite engineer, as at this point, seeing Issac shoot some hoops just isn’t cutting it.
Ranters, what do you think? Are we going to be seeing Dead Space 3 anytime soon, or was it all just a mistake on BT’s end?
Dead Space 3 is rumored to be in development, possibly for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.

im definitely lookin forward to Dead Space 3 as well as God Of War 4 and Crysis 3. im a patient man ill wait lol…
i cant wait for Dead Space 3 to come out, n im thinking about trying it on pc since the next-gen consoles are on there way and pc doesnt really change it just gets updates. if im wrong about that then please let me kno cuz i actually dont kno a damn thing about pc gaming, all i kno is that i have an ASUS laptop n im told it is used for pc gaming n i was planning to buy a pc game n controller to try it out.
while not false technically I personally prefer console gaming simply because I don’t have the income to buy new graphics cards or the other assorted upgrades that you need to do once a computer gets too old to run the newest games. I guess I just like knowing that whatever game I get will run no matter what on the Xbox360 where as it’s more of a maybe with my computer lol XD but if I had the cash I would totally computer game… I like the controls better for things like Skyrim.
thats tru but if you think about it, you play 360 so thats $60 a year and thats the same price as new graphics cards, n i wouldnt think that you need to buy more than one gc per year, if you do then that really sux.
I’ve been dying for any Dead Space 3 news ever since finishing up Dead Space 2. I’m a huge fan of the franchise, and I think it needs at least one more game to finish up Isaac’s story.
