Glen Schofield Comments on the Possibility of Dead Space 4

by

Glen Schofield, the creator of the original *Dead Space*, hopes to make a fourth game in the sci-fi horror series, over 17 years after the first one came out. Although he wasn’t part of making *Dead Space 2* or *3*, he’s still interested in returning to the franchise with a future installment.

The original *Dead Space* is widely considered one of the greatest action horror games ever made, praised for its intense combat, terrifying enemies called Necromorphs, and unsettling atmosphere in space. While the first two games were both critical and commercial successes, *Dead Space 3* didn’t live up to expectations and is often blamed for the long pause in new releases. Now, after many years, the series’ original creator has made comments that are giving fans renewed hope for a brand-new *Dead Space* sequel.

Will Dead Space 4 Ever Happen?

Glen Schofield, during an interview at Gamescom Asia in Bangkok, expressed his desire to create a *Dead Space 4*. He revealed he’d previously pitched the idea to EA but was turned down. However, with EA’s recent acquisition, Schofield is hopeful the project could still happen. He’s already begun exploring options and reaching out to see if there’s new interest in acquiring the rights to continue the *Dead Space* series.

Despite receiving fantastic reviews, the 2023 remake of *Dead Space* didn’t sell as well as EA had hoped, which has left the future of the series uncertain. It’s unclear if the company’s new ownership will be more open to a sequel, but the game’s creator, Schofield, is still determined to make *Dead Space 4* happen.

Glen Schofield’s plans for future games, including a potential *Dead Space 4*, are facing challenges due to the ongoing debate surrounding EA’s recent acquisition. This situation could make it difficult to get new projects approved. Currently, there are no confirmed plans for additional remakes or sequels in the *Dead Space* series.
