Hello PlayStation community! The Dead Space 2 team is excited to bring you something for the first time in the history of the franchise — the ability to strategically dismember your friends in our all new multiplayer feature!
That’s right, Dead Space 2 will offer its own unique take on multiplayer, which is intensely gruesome and completely grounded in the Dead Space universe and fiction. Dead Space 2 will feature four-versus-four gameplay with an objective based multiplayer, across five unique locations throughout the Sprawl.
Not only will players have the chance to play as the Sprawl Security Team, but they will have a chance to see the other side of the coin and play as the evil Necromorph forces. Players will be able to play as four different Necromorph characters, each with its own unique gameplay style: The Pack, The Lurker, The Spitter, and the newly famous Puker.
In DS2 MP, the Sprawl Security Team will have specific, unique objectives across five different maps which will be focused on eradicating the Necromorph forces and restoring safety across the Sprawl. On the other hand, the Necromorphs must stalk, trap, and devour the Sprawl Security Team and prevent them from completing their mission.
Dead Space 2 multiplayer will also feature an entire level progression metagame in which players will unlock new weapons, suit skins, weapon upgrades, as well as gameplay characteristics that will build on the core mechanics of each Necromorph.
The Dead Space 2 team is hard at work right now, and we’re focused on shipping a phenomenal multiplayer experience for all of the fans. We’re really looking forward to getting it in your hands on the 25th of January!
Thanks for your support!
The point of dead space, is to make you feel isolated, trapped and scared. Multi player completely defeats the purpose of a horror/thriller game like this!
Wow i really can’t wait this game look’s awesome and multiplayer for get about it ;D
Please…
1) DON’T have multiplayer trophies
2) have a co-op side story mode
I’d rather the game stay single player, but if you must add MP, please take those two things into consideration. Thanks.
I am a huge fan of the first dead space. everything from running low on ammo, to having no actual HUD, i loved it (virtually) all. i am quite saddened to see that in multiplayer, you play as necromorphs. it just seems really unnecessary, and seems like it loses the ‘dead space feeling’. if anything, can their be on online co-op ‘hoard’ style mode? that would make sense, and it would hopefully retain its original vibe.
Besides that, the single player still looks AMAZING, and i cannot wait to get my hands on it :D
cool game cant wait for demo lol
i was sold on this game and trophys dont matter to me but they add to the challenge for me all these games and companys including multiplayer and specially now the game looks more action i think they lost my buisness cant someone FOR ONCE JUST ONCE not include multiplayer
