Electronic Arts may be planning fewer titles next year, but that won't stop EA Redwood Shores from sending players straight to hell. The Dead Space developers have officially announced their next hellish project, dubbed Dante's Inferno.

Little is known about the upcoming third-person action title, other than it will be based upon Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy. Jonathan Knight, executive producer on Dante's Inferno, simply notes that "the time is right" to adapt the 14th Century literary work into a game, though with Universal tapped to twist the game into a movie, clearly the time is also right to make lots of money. A teaser site and embedded video have also been released, and after playing through Dead Space it seems that we might soon abandon all hope of sleeping through the night.

What do you guys think about this? Personally, I loved the Inferno, it was an intriguing read. However, I'm not sure how they're going to pull this off.

Dead Space was a good game. :)

Hopefully it isn't some stupid brawler like Devil May Cry or God of War.

*I have not played Devil May Cry or God of War.

Probably, but he's in the same level of hell as Brutus and Judas Iscariot.

for a while, i thought that project would be dead space 2

i seriously hope that they dont turn the game into a supernatural game that involves god and devil and whatnot(thats what i was expecting when I read the first few paragraphs)
