Over the next two weeks, anyone with a Steam account can try out Dead Space for an hour and a half for free. Now, almost four months after launch, EA announced it is running a 20% off sale for Dead Space on Steam and is offering a free trial through May 29. Motive released its remake of Dead Space in January to critical acclaim. The first title to have one is EA Motive’s Dead Space remake.

But this Dead Space one is definitely new, the horror remake is worth your time according to our Dead Space review, and I'd like to see more free trials in general.Steam is rolling out a new feature that allows developers and publishers to offer limited-time free trials for their games. Have I seen a free trial on Steam before? Maybe. Dead Space's own launch wasn't bad, although it has issues on Steam Deck. At a time when several PC ports have had less than stellar launches, including EA's own Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, a way for people to give them a spin without spending money first seems like a good idea. Dead Space is also 20% off for the duration.įree trials are useful because they offer, among other things, a chance to test whether a game will work on your PC. The free trial is seemingly only available between now and May 29th, so youy have around two weeks to give it a try. If you press the button, it'll prompt you to download and install the trial, which requires a little over 36GB of drive space. There's a Play Now button and text showing how many minutes of playtime you have remaining. If you visit Dead Space's Steam store page in the Steam client, you'll see a box at the top of the page, between the trailers and the purchase options, which reads "Try Dead Space - Free Trial".
