The next Dead Space Remake developer livestream will be looking at the chilling art design

EA has announced the date of its next Developer Diary stream for Dead Space Remake, titled Crafting the Tension. It will premiere later this week on May 12 at 10:00am PT/1:00pm ET on EA’s various official video channels, including YouTube and Twitch.

As part of EA’s ongoing deep behind-the-scenes look at Dead Space Remake’s development, the company has hosted various live streams focused on a specific aspect of the survival horror title. Previous videos have focused on sound design and physics, but the upcoming video will emphasize the art.

According to EA, the next developer livestream will “offer an in-depth look at various aspects of the upcoming game’s art design. The Motive team will share early footage of how they leverage the Frostbite engine, Gen 5 hardware and PCs to visually evolve and recreate the original Dead Space’s environments, characters, VFX, lightning and more from the ground up to create a new level of immersion and quality for today’s modern audience.

EA Motive places particular emphasis on next-generation realism features. For example, the audio is such that Isaac will sound and speak differently depending on how much damage he has taken. And EA Motive seems to be taking the dissection mechanics from the game series to a whole new level.
