Dead Space remake release date and time

Dead Space launches on January 27, 2023, and EA Motive Studio released a helpful guide with the exact release times across various regions.

In North America, Dead Space will go live digitally at 11 a.m. Eastern on the morning of January 27, 2023 (8 a.m. Pacific).

In other territories, you’ll have to wait until January 28 to play, such as in Australia when the game goes live at 3 a.m. Because of the simultaneous global launch, there isn’t a way to play it early by utilizing an account from a different region.

However, these launch times all apply to the digital version. If you happen to grab a physical copy from a retailer prior, you can dive in right away.

The Dead Space remake won’t take up an enormous amount of hard drive space, unlike many recent AAA releases. Across PC and Xbox Series X|S, Dead Space clocks in at around 32GB. Details about the PS5 version have yet to be revealed, but it’ll likely be around the same file size as its Xbox and PC counterparts.

Unfortunately, the Dead Space pre-order bonuses are scarce. In fact, there’s only one pre-order bonus and it’s for Steam users.
