Dead Space Wii Goes Gold

September 2, 2009 7:45 AM

Visceral Games' Wii shooter prequel Dead Space Extraction has entered the manufacturing process and will indeed make its promised September 29 release. Publisher and studio owner Electronic Arts made the announcement this morning, and also noted that those who pre-order "at participating retailers" will get a code to automatically unlock some challenge modes, instead of needing to earn them in-game.

The on-rails first-person shooter delivers two-player co-op and "an important new heroine to the Dead Space universe," which began on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2008.

I thought I'd completely missed the release of this and it was already out after I saw someone playing it in True Blood, guess that was some clever pre-release marketing.

  I noticed this as well. I died a little inside when I saw it wasn't out yet though.
