Following the leaks that a new Dead Space was set to be revealed at EA Play Live in July, and the Dead Space YouTube channel being brought back to life yesterday, new reports suggest that the game will be a full remake of the original.
This was once again reported by Jeff Grubb over at VentureBeat, and he suggests that it will be a Resident Evil 2 style remake, with everything being refreshed from the ground up.
