EA has confirmed to IGN that Dead Space 3 will be shown during E3 next week. While several leaks have seemingly revealed the existence of the game over the past year, E3 will mark the official unveiling as well as the debut of the first footage.
EA will debut the Dead Space 3 footage at its own conference, which IGN will live stream on Monday, June 4th at 1:00 p.m. PDT. In addition, we'll have the entire Dead Space 3 demo on our IGN Live Show directly from the E3 show floor.
“We’re excited to unveil Dead Space 3 to the world at the EA press conference next week,” EA told us.
While we don’t know many details yet, we do know that the game will allegedly feature co-op and take place on an ice planet. Earlier this week, EA revealed new character John Carver in an animated short, who bears a striking similarity to the game’s rumored co-op partner.
The last numbered installment of the Dead Space franchise was Dead Space 2 in early 2011, but EA confirmed that the series would be a trilogy way back in 2009.
The first rumblings of Dead Space 3 came in the form of leaked footage from an Israeli news show, followed by job listings and retail listings earlier this year. More recently, a logo and the first screenshots appeared online.
