game is played onboard the USG Ishimura, a planet cracker class spaceship orbiting a distant planet called
Aegis VII, then moves to a colony on the planet itself. The second game is set on The Titan Sprawl, a city on a
moon of Saturn. Prequels, sequels, and interquels take place on one of these two settings. DEAD SPACE takes
place primarily on Tau Volantis, an ice covered frozen planet whose colony went dark 200 years ago and was
never heard from again. Tau Volantis is also supposedly where the markers originate from.
Each installment in the Dead Space series is a continuation or addition to a continuing storyline which began
with the release of the original eponymous game. The game is set in a 26th-century universe f
eaturing environments, weapons and characters typical of the genre. The series' chronology is not presented in a linear format, with sections of the storyline presented in the form of either prequels or sequels, and in different
media aside from only video games. Generally speaking, the series focuses on a man named Isaac Clarke and t
he horrors that surround him.
So far the series has been commercially and critically successful, selling over 8.0 million copies; the first game
and its sequel received widely positive reviews from the majority of critics and the first game has received a
number of industry awards for many different elements of its gameplay and development.
On March 4, 2013, it was reported that EA had shut down production of Dead Space 4due to lower-than-expected
sales of Dead Space 3. EA Games Label president Frank Gibeau had previously said that Dead Space 3 needed t
o sell 5 million copies to be successful. The following day, EA said the report was "patently false".[1]
