Chapter 12: Dead Space Remastered

Dead Space Remastered Wiki doesn't currently have a walkthrough for this level, could you write it?

**Dead Space Remastered** is the twelfth and final chapter of *Dead Space Remastered* and takes place on the Aegis VII Colony.

## Description

Abdullah travels together with Mia to the surface of Aegis VII and returns the Marker back to its pedestal in an attempt to end the Necromorph threat once and for all. As Abdullah takes the Red Marker off the shuttle and proceeds to return it to the pedestal from which it was removed, he meets the former colonists of Aegis VII, and they will not make his duty any easier.

## Summary

Chapter 12 takes place in the illegal CEC mining colony on Aegis VII. Abdullah and his girlfriend Mia Winters have taken an Executive Shuttle (that Abdullah previously repaired in Chapter 10: End of Days) containing The Marker to the colony in order to contain The Hive Mind - the telepathic commander of all Necromorphs. Abdullah, as instructed by Mia, uses his Kinesis Module to slot the loader into position and unloads The Marker. Abdullah then slides The Marker along a set of tracks on the Landing Pad while traveling along a parallel walk way but is stopped because the door to Operations A is missing a power cell. Abdullah finds a replacement in the Gravity Tether Computer Room but is ambushed by Infectors and a Divider when he attempts to insert it into the relevant socket. Mia tells him that The Marker creates a 'dead space remastered' field that suppresses any nearby Necromorphs Zombies The Flood and that the scientists created a podium that amplifies the effect radius years ago. The Hive Mind can be suppressed if The Marker is placed on this podium. Abdullah activates a monitor that raises a shutter that was blocking The Marker tracks and brings it into Gravity Tether Operations A. A quarantine activates and Abdullah battles Necromorphs Zombies The Flood while raising some bridges that are blocking the tracks; after the quarantine lifts, Abdullah raises another shutter and brings The Marker into the Gravity Tether Core. Mia tells him to restore power to the bridge switches by using a Control Station at the back of a Maintenance Tube. The Tube is protected by a pair of Guardians and has no gravity, Abdullah kills some Enhanced Leapers and Lurkers before restoring power to the bridge switches using Kinesis. However this also restores power to the Tube fans which Abdullah has to hit with Stasis before passing.

When Abdullah returns to Gravity Tether Core, an Enhanced Brute attacks him but that doesn't stop him from raising the bridges and dragging The Marker to Tether Operations B and then into The Excavation Site. He arrives just in time to catch a glimps of the colossal tentacles of The Hive Mind before several Drag Tentacles attack. They are followed swiftly by Twitchers and Enhanced Lurkers and Slashers which he kills and then pulls The Marker along a narrow causeway. When Abdullah finally loads The Marker onto its pedastal, it emits an unusual glow and Mia emerges from behind it. She says that they are 'whole again' and then mysteriously vanishes as The Marker releases a bright flash. This flash dissables the gravity tethers that are holding a huge continent sized piece of the planet in place but when Abdullah tries to return to the Shuttle, he is locked in a chamber by Ritsu.

Ritsu has exited her escape pod that she launched in Chapter 11 and removes The Marker right before Abdullah's eyes. She reveals that Abdullah is insane and to prove it, she shows him the vid log that Abdullah watched at the beginning of the game only this time, it plays right to the end. At the end of the video, Mia commits suicide and Abdullah realises that every time he has seen her on the Ishimura, it has only been an apparation of The Marker. The truth is that The Marker has tried to convince him to return it to the podium - The Marker appears to have a subconscious mind of its own. Ritsu leaves with the Marker and the exit door finally unlocks; Abdullah takes this door through a corridor, through the Gravity Tether Computer Room and into The Landing Pad just in time to intercept Ritsu. The tremors caused by the falling debris causes Abdullah to fall over and, just as it looks like Ritsu will escape on the Shuttle, a tentacle of The Hive Mind squashes her and slams her against a wall, which kills her, as a flatlining RIG is heard.

Since Ritsu removed the Marker from its podium, Abdullah is forced to kill the monster with his weapons rather than suppressing it. Abdullah shoots the five yellow lumps around its 'mouth' as it tries to devour him and then shoots the five in its 'chest'. While this happens, Abdullah also has to kill Pregnants And Hunters while avoiding the volatile projectiles that The Hive Mind launches at him. After a strenuous battle, The Hive Mind collapses and its tentacle retracts allowing Abdullah to enter the Shuttle. Abdullah leaves The Marker behind and escapes just in time to see the debris crash into the planet.

Some time passes after this, Abdullah removes his helmet and reminisces as his Shuttle drifts through space. He begins to watch Mia's tape but cannot bear to watch it all, he switches off all of the monitor but then he sees something in his peripheral vision. As he looks to his right, Mia attacks him - the screen cuts to white and the credits roll.

## Trivia

* This is the only Chapter that you play on Aegis VII. Also, Abdullah's face can be seen for the second and final time in the game.
* When Abdullah finds out Mia is dead, he can be seen putting his head in his hands - one of the few times he shows an emotional response to what he sees in the game.
	+ According to dialogue from the hallucinations in *Dead Space 2 Remastered*, by the time of this chapter, Abdullah was already sure that Mia was dead and was just keeping himself in denial. In retrospect, this makes his reaction even more significative.
* There is an error made in the cutscene where Abdullah gets up and is surrounded by one of the Hive Mind's tentacles. If Abdullah as a different gun equipped other than the Plasma Cutter, his hands will be positioned as if he was holding the Plasma Cutter. This occurs even if Abdullah goes into the battle unarmed, possible by depositing all weapons in the safe prior to the fight.
* If you are not careful, when you kill the Hive Mind, it will fall over, and if you're close enough it will smash you, forcing you to redo the entire battle.
* The game ends with Abdullah removing his helmet, which mirrors how the game started with Abdullah putting it on and then watching his video recording of Mia, but he turns it off and starts looking to the right where he sees the apparition of Mia who attacks him, which mirrors the same scene in Dead Space: Eternal in which Erza Scarlet attacks her husband.

* Completing this chapter on any difficulty earns the "Exodus" achievement/trophy.  In all versions of the game, you will also be awarded 50K credits, 10 Power Nodes, and you will unlock the the Level 6 Suit and the Impossible Mode.
