- Skipping the Drag Tentacle in Chapter 5
During the Drag Tripod encounter in the Church of Unitology, pause the game and rebegin from the checkpoint to skip the entire sequence and go straight to the Pack encounter.

- Re-spec ability
At the begin of Chapter 7, you will have the option to re-spec your weapons, RIG, and stasis module. This ability allows you to take out all the power nodes in a piece of equipment and re-assign them elsewhere. Each time you re-spec an item, it will cost 5000 CR. This ability does not help you get the trophy for upgrading all your equipment, but it is helpful to re-assign (or take back) power nodes from weapons you do not use anymore. Additionally, you can use this ability to refill Isaac's health at any workbench. If you re-spec the RIG, any changes to a health node will reset Isaac's health to the new maximum. For 5,000 credits, a re-spec is cheaper than a large medikit.

- Prequel bonuses
Have a saved game file from the original Dead Space to begin the game with access to the Refurbished Plasma Cutter. However, your upgrades to the Plasma Cutter from Dead Space will not carry over.
