How long does it take to finish the chapters in Dead Space Remake?

The original title used to take roughly 12 hours to complete. The 2023 edition is similar in length to the original, taking around 11-12 hours to beat. There are a total of 12 chapters, with each taking an hour to beat. It should be noted that the first and last chapters are slightly shorter, and some are longer than others.

The remake has kept the chapters similar to the original game but has extended the length of some of them. They feature new side missions indicated by a yellow line on Isaac Clarke's Wayfinder. If a blue line is also present, it means that the side mission is on the same path as the primary mission.

What else does the new entrant have in store for us?

Dead Space features New Game+, which becomes available after beating the game once. It allows players to restart with all their previous weapons, items, upgrades, and credits.

However, not all items will be in the inventory at the start. Isaacs can retrieve items from storage at any time during the game. Abilities such as Stasis and Kinesis must be reacquired at appropriate plot points during the new playthrough as they are tied to specific story moments.
