“Gruesome” Dead Space 3 DLC Slated for March

Dead Space 3, Visceral Games’ latest big budget horror blockbuster, has crept its way into stores today and the buzz is good – though the insidious mixture of microtransactions and dull writing is scaring fans in their own way, but I’m not here to condemn games I haven’t played yet (I’ll save that for the YouTube comments section).

We’re here because EA has announced new downloadable content for the game that’s promised to be especially “disturbing,” even for the Dead Space franchise – and this is coming from the same series that introduced exploding slug-babies as an enemy.

Dubbed Awakened, the story add-on takes hapless engineer Isaac Clarke through “the franchise’s darkest chapters as the Necromorph battles become even more gruesome and terrifying than ever before.”  I’m guessing massive exploding slug-babies.

Awakened releases sometime in March for all systems Dead Space 3 graces, priced at $9.99 (800 MS).

This will be part of the Deadspace Release party in Paris France on Feb 7th at Le Dernier Bar Avant la Fin du Monde in Paris, the one and only geek themed bar of the capital!

It is an official “very” limited edition print through EA and Geek-Art.com that pays homage to the great Drew Struzan and his poster for “The Thing”

Back flippin’ Christ, this is fantastic.

Dead Space 3 Gets a Very Limited, Limited Edition

EA and Visceral are just about set to release their AAA horror sequel, Dead Space 3, with a little less than a month to wait out on the clock.  That’s why there’s no better time than now to make fans scramble like crazy for a limited edition as pricey as it is scare.

Behold the Dev Team Edition, priced at $160 U.S. if you bundle the exclusive goods with a copy of Dead Space 3, or only $100 if you’re getting the game elsewhere (or if you’re a reseller…or if you, bewilderingly, see no need to own the game but all the need to own one-hundred dollars worth of swag).

The Dev Team’s contents are as such:

• A custom molded, 8" polyresin Black Marker statue
• An Aluminum Sovereign Colony era Data Pad
• 14-oz water bottle replica of the in-game Med Pack (Hydrate and heal, friends)
• An SCAF Bound Jotter filled with 20-pages of Dead Space lore
  
• 3 SCAF Posters and 6 PENG postcards featuring pin-up girls from the future
• Dev Team exclusive 96-Page Mini-Art Book

How limited are we talking?  5,000 were produced, and according to Visceral, those’re the only that are ever being made.  “Get a copy now before they’re gone forever,” says the dev.  Dead Space 3 and its limited edition terrorize the PS3, 360, and PC come February 5th.
