Efter att detta lediga jobb utannonserades från #Electronic Arts-håll så spekuleras nu om #Dead Space 2 kommer innehålla ett online-läge. Jobbannonsen ifråga söker nämligen en erfaren online level designer, som kommer att vara inblandad i utvecklingen av Dead Space-uppföljaren.

Detta hade såklart inte varit något uppseendeväckande alls, om det nu inte varit som så att ettan (ovanligt nog) saknade multiplayer-läge helt och hållet. Från officiellt håll är dock inte #Dead Space 2 ens tillkännagivet ännu.
