The remake for Empty space will not only give the game a new graphical appearance, but also change the appearance of protagonist Isaac Clarke. Empty space is one of the seminal pieces of gaming horror. It took a lot from games like Resident Evil and chose to take everything into space, creating a brand new breed of terrifying horror for players to immerse themselves in. dead space 2 which then led to a threequel that didn’t wrap everything up the way fans had hoped. Nevertheless, it is an essential horror game for gamers, and it will return in a remake that will modernize it, add new content and much more.
One of the big changes is that Isaac Clarke will be more of a character in the remake. The original Empty space mostly kept Isaac as a silent protagonist, aside from his screams and growls. The sequels opted to flesh him out a bit more, but the remake will ensure he’s voiced from the start and likely seen more often. With this, EA Motive has also given Issac a new face and it looks like he’s going to look more like the actor who plays him, Gunnar Wright. The latest trailer reveals a new look at Isaac’s face up close and personal and a fan on Twitter named RuleTimeSpace compared his new face side-by-side to that of the original game.

They look quite different, but Isaac looks much more like a real person this time. Since he’s not supposed to be a super soldier and heroic guy, but just a normal engineer, it makes more sense for him to look less hardened. Only time will tell if the new one Empty space remake implements these changes in a way that pleases fans, but everything seems to be falling into place at this point.
