Dead Space Remake has one of the coolest accessibility tools, so you have time to gear up before the next fight. 

In recent years, video games have seen a drastic change in graphics, storyline, characters, and more, as users have made it all about the experience. More than the depth, fans are keen on having a good time glued to their screens either with their friends or alone. After all, it is unlikely to find a vast majority falling under the ‘pro’ category. So it’s just avid gamers trying to get through the day. 

Looking at this, gaming franchises have adapted to industry standards, providing the ideal experience for their fanbase. The best example to prove this can be the recent EA game, Dead Space Remake, which takes a toll on all horror fanatics. Motive Studio did a fantastic job to revive this classic, adding a higher intensity of graphic violence, including explicit depictions of dismemberment, impalement, blood, gore, and death. But that does not mean they forgot about the ‘warnings.’ as they did a fantastic job on that too!

So, to help them have their best time in-game, EA added a sweet and simple ‘accessibility’ update. Apparently, Dead Space Remake features a setting that gives out warnings at all times. For instance, “In the infamous moment where Isaac hears a dull thud, thud, thud in the distance, you may rightfully assume it’s a nasty beastie, only to approach and find a poor Ishimura employee slamming their face into the window. If you turn on the accessibility toggle, you will see a warning that says, The upcoming section contains depictions of self-inflicted death.” Apart from that, another set of messages pops up at different times.

Mainly when you want to block out scenes. For example, there might be a visual that could be stressful or ‘too much.’ So, you could just blur it out with the tool and not let the audio have any effect. Perfect, right? Well, there’s more, as EA has gone all out to adhere to every explicit content by informing their players beforehand.
