Army of two

If you were hoping the heavily rumoured Dead Space 3 would make a claustrophobic return to the vacant corridors of the USG Ishimura, then prepare yourself for disappointment. A handful of leaked screenshots have all but confirmed co-op for the unannounced sequel.

The shots show series protagonist Isaac Clarke accompanied by a ghoulish accomplice, seemingly feeding into the drop-in/drop-out co-op rumours that have punctuated Dead Space 3’s build up.

EA is still staying tight-lipped about the sequel, but we expect the title to feature prominently during the company’s E3 press conference next week.
