And yet they still won't just sell off the IP, like many others they're sitting on, doing nothing with. We need reform to the IP system. Make IP squatting both illegal and impossible by default.

The Remake apparently didn't sell, and the legally-distinct-Dead-Space (Callisto Protocol), from the OG creator also didn't sell well. Doesn't seem like people want Dead Space right now.
EA aren't interested in anything that they can't use to manipulate kids into gambling
I mean they squeezed all the blood from that orange. Not that that ever stopped Ubisoft...
Didn't they just remake the first one or something? That pretty much signals it's a dead franchise. I've always seen remakes/masters as a sending off love letter.
It’s a misleading headline, EA rejected Glen Schofield’s pitch for dead space 4. The guy who was responsible for the first one and Callisto protocol. It might be that EA is just not interested in letting them handle the franchise anymore.
I see, thanks.
Maybe the team should make an indy spiritual successor then. Especially if the reason is that AAA gamea cost too much to make.
I agree with /u/9point6 above. This type of game is less marketable for add-on content.
