Dead Space 2 Screens Feature 'Severed' DLC

February 8, 2011 10:45 AM

With Dead Space 2 already spinning horrifyingly on consoles and PCs everywhere, fans who have already been through hell and back may be ready for a new chapter in the series. On January 25, developer Visceral Games announced new content would come to the game in the form of a single-player DLC, dubbed "Severed."

Last night, EA sent over a trio of screens for the DLC that feature some of the game's pulse-raising action; such as the content's star trying to ignore the camera shoved in his face. That darn space paparazzi!

In "Severed" players will rekindle their relationships with the Dead Space Extraction characters Gabe Weller and Lexine Murdock--taking control of Gabe on Dead Space 2's ship, The Sprawl. Pricing and a release for the content on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 has yet to be announced, so we're hoping those details won't be too scary. We're already shivering at the fact that the content doesn't appear to be headed to the PC.

I wonder what their sales numbers were for the PC. They must have been pretty shit for them to ignore the platform for the DLC. And it's pretty shitty of them to ignore a platform they released a game on for stuff like this. What, like I'm going to run out and buy a copy of the game on the PS3 just to play the DLC pack?

Hopefully it's coming but if it is then why not announce it?

  They announced before the game was even out that DLC would not be coming to PC.

    Yeah but a press release that nobody knows about at the time of purchase doesn't mean anything. It should have to be one of the bulletpoints on the box.
