The Dead Space remake is a love letter to the Dead Space series, and every aspect of the original game has been touched in some capacity. Many remakes have come and gone for classic games of yesteryear, and the Dead Space remake leans much closer to Resident Evil 2’s reimagining than the Last of Us Part I in terms of how much has changed since the original. Isaac can now speak, weapons have alt-fire modes, and new puzzles have been added. One thing that hasn’t changed much is the number of chapters. This guide will break down how many chapters are in Dead Space.

The full Dead Space chapter list

The 2008 original featured 12 distinct chapters and the remake doesn’t stray in this regard. Each chapter features a bevy of changes, additions, and new puzzles to encounter. Isaac Clarke is now fully voiced, providing deeper story interactions throughout the game with additional cutscenes and deeper ties to the second and third Dead Space titles. All of the changes add up to a much longer game, despite the number of chapters remaining the same.
