Today, EA announced that Dead Space 3 is available for free to EA Access subscribers in The Vault. The Vault is a collection of free games which anyone who subscribes to the service can access and enjoy as long as they're a member. EA Access costs $29.99 each year but you can also choose $4.99 monthly payments. The game has been backward compatible for many months now so it's great to see it becoming part of the subscription service.

Dead Space 3 brings Isaac Clarke and merciless soldier John Carver on a journey across space to discover the source of the Necromorph outbreak. Crash-landed on the frozen planet of Tau Volantis, Clarke must comb the harsh environment for raw materials and scavenged parts. He will then put his engineering skills to the ultimate test to create and customize weapons and survival tools.

The ice planet holds the key to ending the Necromorph plague forever, but first Clarke must overcome avalanches, treacherous ice-climbs, and the violent wilderness. Facing deadlier evolved enemies and the brutal elements, Clarke can choose to team up, not only for his own survival but for humanity's as well. Dead Space 3 features co-op multiplayer so you can blast grotesque creatures with a friend if you choose.
