The game will also include a new difficulty mode, “Survival Mode,” which will challenge even the most seasoned Dead Space veterans.

In the upcoming remake, Isaac Clarke will have a voice actor, with actor Wright returning to play the role. This means that players will be able to see Isaac interact with important characters like Kendra Daniels and Zach Hammond in a more meaningful way. In the original game, Isaac was a silent protagonist.
