And with a shiny new remake of that original game awaking this dormant franchise, what better time to dive into the hellish misadventures of Isaac Clarke.ĭead Space Remake is finally out, and while it mostly follows the original game’s story, there are a few major changes here and there. This video breaks down the franchise chronologically, charting the story of Isaac Clarke and his ongoing fight against the Necromorph horde.

There's a bunch of things for which I'm not totally sure (Salvage and Aftermath order especially), and also some stuff overlap each other (for example the first comic, downfall and extraction (both game and comic) kind of take place roughly in the same time frame).The Dead Space timeline has a vast timeline that spans 300 years of terror across a trilogy of games, a few spin-off titles, a handful of comic books and novels, and a pair of films too. Here's my chronology that I tried to piece out:ĭead Space: Catalyst (novel, the years 2260)ĭead Space: Comics (comic but also exists as videos, starts 5 weeks before DS1, ends a couple of days before DS1)ĭead Space: Downfall (animated feature, set in the week before the start of DS1)ĭead Space: Extraction Comic (comic, starts 6 months before the first game until the day DS1 starts)ĭead Space: Extraction (game, starts around a week before the start of DS1, ends right at the beginning of DS1)ĭead Space: Aftermath (animated feature, couple of weeks (months?) after DS1)ĭead Space: Salvage (comic, couple of weeks (months?) after DS1)ĭead Space: Mobile (game, about half a day before the start of DS2)ĭead Space: Ignition (game, starts a couple of hours before DS2, finishes a couple of seconds before the start of DS2)ĭead Space 2: Severed (story DLC, takes place in parallel of DS2)ĭead Space: Liberation (comic, about 3 weeks before the start of DS3)ĭead Space 3 (game, year 2514, except the prologue: year 2314)ĭead Space 3: Awakened (story DLC, couple of hours (days?) after DS3)
