Survival horror has continuously evolved since Resident Evil 4 revolutionized it with intense over-the-shoulder action in 2005. Numerous games have further contributed to the genre’s evolution in the years since then, chief among them being Dead Space from Visceral Games and publisher Electronic Arts. A group of the sci-fi horror game’s original creators challenged themselves to walk that line again, and usher in another new take on the genre. They attempted to do so by once more exploring the terrors of outer space, specifically the isolation and hopelessness that such a setting invites.
