Get excited, Wii owners! Visceral Games has announced that Dead Space Extraction will be hitting store shelves this year on September 29 in North America and October 2 in Europe. No price was announced, but one would assume Extraction to go for the $40-$50 price range.
Dyson and I got to see Dead Space Extraction in person a little while ago and we were pretty impressed by what we saw. Still, as good as it looks, I’m more anxious to hear about Dead Space 2 when it’s (most likely) officially announced next week.
What about you? Looking forward to Dead Space Extraction?
