Visceral: Dead Space isn’t dead, just on a break

Speaking with Kotaku at Gamescom in an interview for Battlefield: Hardline, Visceral Games General Manager Steve Papoutsis said the Dead Space franchise isn’t dead, just on a break.

“Is Dead Space dead? Not for me it’s not. I love it, the team at Visceral loves it. Having worked on it for seven years, this was a good break for us to try something different,” Papoutsis said.

“But there’s a lot of passion about that franchise, not just from me but from others in the company, so I think it’s an IP that’s important for the company,” he continued. “You never know where it’s going to go… I’d definitely be excited about what it would be like on this gen.”

Visceral is currently at work on the aforementioned Battlefield: Hardline.
