Back in 2008, the original Dead Space was released on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and (of course) PC. It shouldn't be surprising that the remake of Dead Space, which drops tomorrow on January 27th, is also available across these three platforms. Except (of course) the consoles are now PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
