Right after the launch of Dead Space 3 in North America, EA revealed plans for a DLC expansion pack. It has now been officially announced that Dead Space 3 Awakened will be released next week, and we have a brand new trailer for you to watch.

"Continue the epic adventure with Isaac Clarke and John Carver, on the frozen planet of Tau Volantis and derelict ship Terra Nova. Isaac and John must find a way to escape depths of space. Dead Space 3 Awakened is coming March 12 to the PlayStation Network in North America, and worldwide on Origin.com and Xbox LIVE Marketplace. The pack will be available March 13 on the PlayStation Network in Europe."

 “With Dead Space 3 our goal was to evolve the franchise bringing in innovative new features like drop-in/drop-out co-op, weapon crafting, and an engaging atmosphere while still retaining the incredible suspense, horror, action and sound that the series is known for,” said Steve Papoutsis, Vice President and General Manager of Visceral Games and Executive Producer on Dead Space 3. “Gamers are going to be thrown in and out of space, taken to a violent new ice planet and allowed to explore several different abandoned spaceships and caves. But we’re not stopping there. In Dead Space 3 Awakened, gamers will experience some of the most disturbing content they have ever seen in a Dead Space game – they are going to love it.”
