With its unique take on multiplayer combat, Dead Space 2’s Outbreak mode gained a cult following among some players. Players on the Necromorph team choose from one of four different creature types with abilities ranging from powerful melee attacks to acid-spitting, with a goal of wiping out the human players. Featuring multiple different maps, each with its own objectives, Outbreak’s human players must complete a set number of tasks before a timer runs out while using weapons and special abilities to defend themselves from the Necromorphs. Taking inspiration from the Versus mode in Valve’s Left 4 Dead series, Outbreak mode in Dead Space 2 pits humans against Necromorphs in objective-based multiplayer matches.

Although players had to fend for themselves when making their way through the campaign, the survival horror sequel also offered a unique competitive multiplayer mode. Moving the action from the ill-fated USG Ishimura to the labyrinthine Titan Station, referred to as The Sprawl in Dead Space 2, the story mode in Visceral Games’ survival horror sequel remained a solidly single-player experience when it was released in 2011. If EA does proceed with a Dead Space 2 remake, though, it will have to decide if one cult classic game mode is worth the effort to update. Spurred on by teases of a Dead Space 2 remake hidden in EA Motive’s recent hit, fans of the 2011 title have already begun to speculate about what a reimagined version of the spooky sequel would contain. After EA’s Motive Studio blew gamers away like a Force Gun with the release of its acclaimed Dead Space remake earlier this year, some fans immediately began clamoring for the franchise's sequels to receive a similar treatment.
