The latest in Titan Books’ series of behind-the-scenes video game art books goes back to the ruins of the necromorph-infested Ishimura and forward to the frozen wastes of Tau Volantis for The Art of Dead Space. Martin Robinson, who also worked on Titan’s Halo: The Art of Building Worlds, has pulled together over 300 images focusing mainly on Dead Space 3 (available today for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC), but it has a few detours back to the first two games in the series.The tech of the Dead Space universe also gets a rare spotlight, including a two-page spread covering the various designs of the signature Plasma Cutter.

Titan handed us a few exclusive (and surprisingly gore-less) images from the book, which is also available now. Launch the gallery below and enjoy!

Series protagonist Isaac Clarke and his trusty Plasma Cutter on a typical day at work.
The Sovereign Colonies Armed Forces, a new addition to the Dead Space universe, are also tangled up in the conspiracy surrounding the necromorphic Markers. Because that’s worked out well for everyone else.
The waystation of Tau Volantis. Series protagonist Isaac Clarke, investigating a mystery involving centuries-old Sovereign Colonies, picks up the trail here. Also, things try to kill him.
Norton, a new character introduced in Dead Space 3, is either the most dangerous or the most suicidal guy around, because he starts putting some moves on Isaac’s girlfriend, Ellie.
All the vehicles in Dead Space 3 have a grubbier, beaten-down feel to them. This is what happens when developers don’t keep their toys clean.
