The Dead Space remake was only announced in July and is slated to come out sometime next year on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. But even though it’s so far away, fans will get a sneak peek at the game during an upcoming livestream. EA Motive announced that it would be showing an early development build on August 31 at 10 a.m. PT on its Twitch channel.

Two people from the development team will be hosting the stream: Senior Producer Philippe Ducharme and Creative Director Roman Campos-Oriola, both of whom are mostly known for their extensive work at Ubisoft in the years prior. However, one portion of the team will be made up of the Dead Space Community Council. This is a dedicated group of fans that are acting as consultants for the remake and a few of them will also be on the stream, too. Ducharme talked to IGN about this collection of fans that the team meets with every few weeks, stating it helped the team stay out of its bubble and get valuable feedback before it’s too late.
Since the game is still likely a fair way off, viewers should not expect a deep or extensive dive into the title. Motive describes it as an “early look” with an “early development build to illustrate the vision of the remake.” It appears like it will show gameplay of some kind, but will be early and something used to set the tone for whatever the full game will be. Motive also didn’t say how long the stream will be.
