Tuning in to the target audience of the Wii, the story isn’t set around a single character either but a group of Aegis VII survivors who are desperately trying to escape the Necromorph infection before it devours them all. The Necromorphs, a race of resilient aliens who need to be dismembered if you want to cause any real damage, didn’t get there on their own one day and, even if they did, we doubt the crew would just let them in… Set as a prequel to the first game (prequels seem to be all the rage these days), Dead Space: Extraction tells the story of how the Necromorph invasion first spread to the USG Ishimura Planet Cracker ship that was the setting of the original game, with much of the action being set on the Aegis VII colony that the ship orbits. Before you roll your eyes and close this window in futile protest to the reality of a Dead Space game on the Wii though, it’s worth bearing in mind that the game is being made by the same team behind the first and that development for the game had begun before the original was even on shelves.ĭead Space: Extraction isn’t simply a knee-jerk reaction to poor sales, it’s a carefully planned extension to the franchise that tries to shed a lot more light on the story of the series – or that’s what Senior Producer Steve Papoutsis was claiming when he guided us through a section of the game anyway.
