Visceral Games executive producer, Steve Papoutsis, had this to say of the upcoming add-on, ' 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.' No word on if the DLC is supports co-op play. It may be a continuation of the Issac Clarke story, a prequel, or it may introduce new characters altogether, like Dead Space 2's 'Severed' DLC. The press release doesn't mention any specifics of the new content. The title begs the question: What, exactly, has been 'awakened?' I bet it's not puppies. Visceral Games has announced Dead Space 3 Awakened, a new digital add-on in which ' players will experience the franchise's darkest chapters as the Necromorph battles become even more gruesome and terrifying than ever before.' The 'Awakened' content will be available in March.

The frozen planet of Tau Volantis may hold secrets of the Necromorph menace and a host of other dangers, but the story doesn't end there. You know what that means? Obligatory launch day DLC announcements! Isaac Clarke is using the buddy system in his latest foray into survival horror, bringing a hardened soldier, John Carver, along for the ride.

In case you haven't heard, Dead Space 3 launched on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC today.
