Visceral's sci-fi horror coming February 2013.

EA's officially lifted the lid off of Dead Space 3 with an action-packed onstage demonstration at its E3 conference in LA.

Backing up rumours that have circulated the game for some months before its official reveal, Dead Space 3 takes place on an ice planet and introduces John Carver (who may or may not be of Mars) who ushers in drop-in/drop-out co-operative play.
