That trailer was later deemed to be inaccurate, according to Eurogamer. At least those that want an even more “frightening, on-the-edge-of-your-seat, anxiety-ridden experience” can still refuse to use the pause button and the option is there for those who need it. The confusion of whether the Dead Space Remake would be coming to PS4 or not seems to stem from an October trailer for the game released by Sony Latin America, which included the PlayStation 4 branding. The idea to remove the pause button was ultimately turned down.ĭead Space already keeps players on the edge of their seats seeing as the action around them never stops while visiting stores or checking maps, objectives, and inventory, always leaving them vulnerable to attack. MacMillan went on to explain how he personally prefers to have a pause button available as “I still tend to get jittery when I play these games,” and it seems like this was the common consensus amongst the team. I think removing that as a feature would make horror games far more impactful - You would truly feel like you’re never actually safe.

But with persistent online games, you’re playing with dozens of other people, and you can’t just pause everybody’s game. And I think you get a reprieve from that.

In horror games, you can pause and you have a moment of safety there.
