The report states “EA launched [Dead Space] in 2008 and is working on the second and third installments”. Sounds clear-cut, but this being Variety (specifically, not Variety’s games blog), you can’t take that for granted. It may be a movie writer getting their wires crossed, and one of those two games is Dead Space: Extraction for the Wii.

As avid fans of DEAD SPACE we hope this writer knows something we don’t as DEAD SPACE was the biggest sleeper hit of 2008. We look forward to hearing more about this as a DEAD SPACE sequel would more than likely arrive in 2010.
