”Dead Space Ignition is the first of many exciting game extensions we have planned for the launch of Dead Space 2,” said Steve Papoutsis, executive producer, reports Shacknews. It comes to Xbox 360 and the PS3 this fall, from Visceral and Sumo Digital.
”The interactive comic-style game will give Dead Space fans a unique perspective on the events leading up to Dead Space 2, but will also introduce the storyline to a brand-new audience of gamers.” Dead Space 2 releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC January 25th.
