Dead Space suit upgrades: Where to find all 6 suit upgrade locations

Learn how to get every Dead Space suit upgrade and cosmetic skin

Want to know how to get suit upgrades in Dead Space? In Dead Space, your suit level determines the amount of items that you can carry, and which upgrades you can buy at Benches. So, if you want to effortlessly blast through Necromorph scum, you'll need to find all suit upgrades spread across the USG Ishimura. However, Dead Space suit upgrades tend to be hidden out of sight, which makes finding them harder than you might've expected. Fortunately, if you're in need of an upgrade so that you can get more inventory slots and health, you're in the right place.

In this guide, we'll explain where to find every suit upgrade in Dead Space, so that you can get more max health and inventory slots.

Where to find every Dead Space suit upgrade

There are six suit levels in Dead Space, with Isaac wearing level 1 when he boards the USG Ishimura. Below, we'll list where to find all of the Dead Space suit upgrades:

  1. This is the default suit that Isaac wears from the start.
  2. Available at the Store after completing Chapter 1: New Arrivals.
  3. Found in the EVA Prep Room just before you do the space walk in Chapter 4: Obliteration Imminent.
  4. Found in the Equipment Workshop near the SOS Beacon in Chapter 7: Into the Void.
  5. Found in the Locker Room near where you can play Z-Ball in Chapter 10: End of Days.
  6. Complete Dead Space and start a New Game Plus. Then, head to the Store to purchase it.

The table below shows the cost of each suit, along with the amount of inventory slots and the damage resistance they each offer.
