We've included the full livestream video capture for you, as well as the 4 individual segments covering the A.L.I.V.E. System, Audio Occlusion, Weapon Sound Effects, and an Atmospheric Walkthrough:
Dead Space: The Sound of Fear Reimagined:
In this video, Creative Director Roman Campos-Oriola, Senior Producer Philippe Ducharme, and Audio Director Olivier Asselin, alongside special guest Jack Pattillo, will be discussing and providing fans an in-depth look at what the team is improving and updating in the audio design, specifically:
The A.L.I.V.E. System – your first chance to hear how the system that controls Isaac’s heart rate, breathing, and dialogue delivery will sound
Audio Occlusion – how audio levels will be controlled through different materials and surfaces as well as projected audio down hallways
Weapons – listen to both the original Plasma Cutter and the Pulse Rifle and the updates to these iconic sounds
00:00 Start • 01:05 Introduction • 08:49 Audio Occlusion & Obstruction • 19:51 Weapons Comparisons • 27:56 A.L.I.V.E. System • 40:09 Orchestra Sneak Peek • 41:44 Atmospheric Walkthrough • 48:26 Launch Window Reveal
Dead Space Game Audio Deep-Dive Part 1:
The A.L.I.V.E. System
In this part, Senior VO Designer Terry Calico, discusses The A.L.I.V.E. System, which controls Isaac’s heart rate, breathing, and dialogue. Isaac’s responses help create the mysterious and dreadful ambiance of Dead Space, and in this video, you’ll find out how the team is bringing this experience forward and refining it to a new level:
00:00 Start • 0:24 Dead Space (Original) Footage • 2:16 Dead Space (Remake) Footage • 2:45 The A.L.I.V.E. System • 5:11 Isaac’s Breathing
Dead Space Game Audio Deep-Dive Part 2:
Audio Occlusion
Here, Lead Sound Designer and Lead Audio Tech Jean-Francois Tremblay will give you insight into the technical improvements made specifically to the occlusion and obstruction audio effects. This system aims to provide players with an unparalleled audio experience by creating a sense of realistic audio projection. Learn about how these updates will allow for more accurate sound positioning and distance attenuation and filtering, which you’ll hear for yourself as Technical Sound Designer Mike Dominiuk and Senior Programmer Diego Merayo Merayo take you through examples from the original and remake.

Pipe Noise & Flow is a sound effects library built around the hidden voices of pipe systems, large and small. Captured over several years across industrial plants, residential buildings, factories, sewers, underground tunnels, caves and public infrastructure, this collection brings together a wide range of sonically rich material.
You’ll hear water, gas, and air moving through pipes made of metal steel, copper, aluminium, plastic, glass, concrete, and stone. There are massive flows and subtle trickles, bursts of pressure, hollow resonances, eerie whistles, and the strange tonalities that emerge when systems crack, leak, or fail. Many recordings feature broken or deteriorating pipes, full of texture and unpredictability. While there is plenty of industrial and subterranean grit, you’ll also find more subtle sources like kitchen sinks, bathroom plumbing, and everyday interior systems; sounds that can lend realism or eeriness to intimate scenes.
This library is designed to be flexible and inspiring. Use it to create detailed ambiences for sci-fi, horror, and post-apocalyptic settings, to build layered mechanical textures for machines and user interfaces, or to design unique elements for hybrid weapons, alien devices, strange creatures or abandoned environments. Whether you need the realism of urban infrastructure or the surreal qualities of a forgotten machine, Pipe Noise & Flow offers an unexpected toolkit full of possibility.
What’s inside:
- Flowing water, rushing air, and gas movement through pipes
- Large industrial pipes, small tubing, and flexible hoses
- Pipes made of metal, iron, copper, aluminium, plastic, glass, concrete, and stone
- Broken, leaky, and deteriorating pipes with rich textures
- Interior plumbing: kitchen sinks, bathroom drains, home radiators
- High-pressure bursts, trickles, drips, and hissing valves
- Tonal and pitched pipe resonances, drones, and hums
- Mechanical rattles, clangs, gurgles, and thumps
- Subterranean ambiences and underground utility spaces
- Studio performances exploring controlled flow and resonance
- Eerie whistles and howling vents for otherworldly design
- Abstract textures and tonalities ideal for creature sound design
- Inspiring source material for sci-fi, horror, fantasy, and surreal soundscapes
- Useful elements for user interface design, machine textures, and hybrid weapons
- Ready-to-layer assets for creating atmospheres, backgrounds, and special effects
