Dead Space Remake Brings Back Isaac's Original Trilogy Voice Actor

The upcoming Dead Space remake will see the return of the original voice actor for protagonist Isaac Clarke, Gunner Wright. Wright voiced the character in all three games, but more so provided the grunts and screams of Isaac in the original Dead Space. The character was a largely silent protagonist in the original game, but EA Motive plans to give him dialogue in its remake.

The Dead Space remake will still follow the story of the original game while expanding on it, as the team wants to utilize all of the ideas developer Visceral Games originally planned. Some of these concepts were scrapped for time, budget, and even technical limitations, but EA Motive has the resources and opportunity to realize that initial vision for new consoles and PC. That said, some changes are being made for the sake of modernizing the original Dead Space, as some features from the sequels will be present in the remake.

One way that EA Motive is revitalizing the classic experience is by making Isaac a fully-voiced protagonist in its Dead Space. The character didn't get any lines of dialogue until the sequels, but the character will speak in the remake. During a developer stream (via GameSpot), Gunner Wright confirmed he will reprise his role as Isaac and expressed his enthusiasm for the remake. EA Motive noted that Isaac won't talk to himself in the remake so as to not break the tension of the original game's atmosphere, but he will speak to other characters when spoken to. EA Motive also stated that it spoke with fans when considering giving Isaac a voice and became convinced it was the right choice.
