Learn how to effectively manage your limited inventory space in Dead Space (Remake). Prioritize weapons, use storage, and keep essential items handy to survive the horrors of the USG Ishimura.
Hey there! So, you're diving into Dead Space Remake and finding yourself drowning in loot? Don't worry, that's super common. Every little thing you grab – med packs, ammo, even new weapons – gets dumped right into your inventory. If you're not careful, you'll be full before you know it, which is a recipe for disaster when you need a health pack or a specific ammo type.
The biggest key here is to decide which weapons you're actually going to use. You've got four quick slots, and it's smart to have a couple of go-to weapons ready. If you're on the fence about which ones are worth upgrading, check out our Best Weapons guide for some pointers.
Make Use of the Storage System!
Once you've got your preferred weapons picked out, you can stash the rest. Seriously, you can put those extra weapons you probably won't touch again into storage. Same goes for any ammo that matches those weapons – either store it or sell it at a store. You'll keep finding ammo for everything, so don't feel like you need to hoard it all.
By storing away the extra gear, you'll free up precious space for the essentials: oxygen tanks, med packs, and stasis packs. These are lifesavers, especially on harder difficulties. You can even stack up on them. Stasis packs, in particular, are clutch for escaping tough encounters, like that nasty Hunter chase later on, or just for getting a quick recharge in a tough fight.
You can move almost any item to your storage when you visit Stores. You’ll have access to 18 storage slots from the beginning of the game.
