New leaked details on Dead Space 3, co-op story

An inside source at EA left leaked to IGN a series of new details on Dead Space 3 , the new installment of the famous horror saga of Visceral Games. Worthy of note is the possibility of the story mode in co-op and there are revealed the first information about changes of weapons and enemies featured in the game; find all details below.

Co-op story

Players can play the story mode in cooperative, and Isaac will be joined by a man from her face scarred with a RIG by engineer, while the color of the "eyes" of his suit is red. The co-op story will be similar to that in single, however there will be some differences. For example, if in a cutscene Isaac and his partner fall and begin to bleed due to an injury, in the single-player mode, the scene will be the same, but of course the other character will not be present. Also the presence of a companion will inspire a sort of "reassurance" in Isaac, and some hallucinations that single mode will not necessarily appear in co-op mode.

Isaac and the new character will need to collaborate to solve environmental puzzles, share ammo and will heal each other. However, there is no system of resuscitation, so if a player were to die, both will be reported at the previous checkpoint.

Isaac may also now crouch to hide or hide behind objects and you can roll right or left to avoid attacks. Telekinesis finally not only will the objects, but you can also rotate and will be a key to solve some puzzles.

Change weapons

According to developers, the Plasma Cutter will be " a totally different ": how indeed fire will have an effect "Shockwave", similar to the old Force Gun.

The pulse Rifle instead will as secondary fire mode, also serrated blades is the ability of ammunition that the secondary fire type will differ for other weapons, and even the Workbench will undergo changes.

The armor will be "streamlined" and similar to that seen in Dead Space 2, and the design will be reflected also on the partner's armor.

Monsters and enemies

It has been confirmed that there will be higher versions and towering monsters seen in the second "Pack" of Dead Space 2 , as the legs with tentacles instead of the back, and of course the Necromorph-killing destruction will return.

Among the enemy will also monsters with augers, there to pieces if there were closer too, or similar beings to spiders, which in the case of close contact we devour, forcing the player to take the fighting at a safe distance.

In addition we also opponents as heavily armed soldiers with guns and grenades, and humans could become suddenly Necromorph-killing destruction.

During the exploration could occur without warning of the steel walls, putting Isaac trapped while hordes of monsters will attack from all sides. However, if we can survive long enough, the enemy retire to continue, at least until the next attack.

Gigantic enemies will also, in one scene we see Isaac face a colossal ice blast from the worm, which also confirms the rumor that Dead Space 3 would be set on an icy planet.

For the moment the information end there: keep on following us for future updates.
