Dead Space Remake Endings Explained, And How It Sets Up Dead Space 2 Remake

Let's say, for a moment, that Motive decides to completely upend the story of Dead Space 2 when remaking it. Isaac has to escape confinement on the Sprawl and destroy the recreated Marker created using data in his mind. Memory blockers prevent him from knowing how he got there or what he was doing till that point. However, the big twist would be that Isaac himself worked with the Sprawl to recreate the Marker and that he's directly responsible for the outbreak on the station.

This could lead to two outcomes. One could see him having second thoughts and trying to halt Convergence, battling his hallucinations of Nicole. The other sees him giving in and spreading the Necromorphs to Earth, perhaps the entire Solar System. It would be an incredible set-up for a Dead Space 3 remake, which would be a far more drastic remake and completely undo the original's events. It certainly seems more likely than, say, creating a spin-off based on the alternate ending that doesn't connect to Dead Space 2 in any way.
