There were some high-quality Dead Space spin-off games that could be made part of a potential Dead Space collection as well to sweeten the pot. Dead Space was already visually-impressive in 2008, just imagine what it could look like on the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. Considering the visual prowess of modern gaming consoles, though, it would be a shame if the Dead Space games never get the visual upgrades that they deserve. Unfortunately, the Dead Space franchise has been dormant since then, with no sign of a comeback. Dead Space 3 was criticized at the time of its release for its use of microtransactions, but its co-op mode was praised by critics at the time, and it did bring a mostly satisfying conclusion to the story that started with the original Dead Space game. Dead Space 2 dialed everything up to 11, with improved visuals and gameplay mechanics, culminating in the somewhat controversial Dead Space 3.

The original Dead Space was essentially Resident Evil 4 in space, taking the basic gameplay of Capcom's survival-horror classic and applying it to a sci-fi setting with a greatly increased focus on horror. There are a number of other older EA games that are all deserving of the remaster treatment, especially if those remasters help usher in new entries for their series. Mass Effect isn't the only dormant franchise that EA should revive, though. RELATED: Dark Horse Reveals New Mass Effect Normandy Figure and More Collectibles

Regardless, fans will have Mass Effect: Legendary Edition to fill the gap in the meantime.

More information on the new Mass Effect game is likely years away, especially with BioWare currently busy at work on Dragon Age 4. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition was announced alongside a brand new Mass Effect game that is in active development at BioWare by those who worked on the original titles.

Mass Effect: Legendary Edition is set to launch spring 2021 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One, and will be playable on both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X thanks to those consoles' backward compatibility with PS4 and Xbox One games. Following months of rumors and speculation, EA finally announced Mass Effect: Legendary Edition, a remastered collection of the original Mass Effect games with enhanced visuals, all of the DLC, and a variety of other improvements.
