2) Mining Tram Station

The second Master Override Door can be found in Tool Storage inside the Mining Deck. Move the crates out of the way with Kinesis to clear a patch to the door. Unlocking this door will reward Issac with two Large Med Packs and a Diffraction Module to upgrade the Contact Beam.

7) Deluxe Quarters (Crew Quarters Tram Station)

What is the prerequisite to begin unlocking the Master Override series of unlockables?

To gain the necessary clearance for these Master Overrides, players must first complete the “You Are Not Authorized” side mission in Dead Space. Collect all the RIGs of the deceased officers onboard the USG Ishimura to cap your Security Override level and unlock all doors.

Remember that this side quest in Dead Space continues until Chapter 10 of the campaign, so the quest is rather lengthy.

Dead Space was launched on January 27, 2023, for the PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5.
