Dead Space Remake is a loving recreation of the 2008 survival horror classic. Carried over from the original are the Logs, a type of collectible that can come in multiple forms with some steering you down the game’s main story path while others provide some lore and backstory to the events of the game and both major and minor characters. There are a total of 188 logs with two Achievements tied to them, one for collecting 75 logs called Story Teller and the other for collecting 150 logs called Legend Teller. So, let’s begin this series of guides breaking down where to find each of these logs chapter by chapter, starting with Chapter 1: New Arrivals. This guide will show players where to find all of the log collectibles in Chapter 1: New Arrivals in the Dead Space Remake.
Upon arriving aboard the USG Ishimura in response to a distress call, the crew of the USG Kellion, including engineer Isaac Clarke find no one there to greet them. At least, no one still living. This guide will break down where to find all of the logs in Chapter 1: New Arrivals of the Dead Space Remake.
All Chapter 1 Logs in Dead Space Remake
There are three types of logs you can find in Dead Space Remake: Collectible Logs found throughout the Ishimura in both Audio and Text form, Story Logs that will play at certain points in the game that are unmissable when your team or fellow survivors contact you, and what I’m going to call Action Logs that are very missable as they will only play when specific actions are taken at specific points in the game and unable to be attained if missed unless loading an earlier save or going into New Game Plus.
This guide will mark Story and Action Logs so you know when a log is either missable or unmissable. All Collectible Logs can be collected at any point of the game before the Point of No Return in Chapter 11: Alternate Solutions, so if you miss any of these don’t worry. You can still go back and get them as long as you aren’t at the game’s final chapter. Chapter 1: New Arrivals of Dead Space Remake contains a total of 16 logs: 9 Story Logs, 2 Situational Logs, and 5 Collectible Logs.
Log #1: Background Request
The first log you can find in the game is aboard the USG Kellion, the ship that you and your team arrive at the Ishimura on. When you go to leave the ship, instead of turning right to go to the docking bay, go left to find this text log on the ground.
Log #2: Sponsored Article: The USG Ishimura
As you make your way into the Ishimura, you will find the next text log on a table inside the Flight Lounge to the left of the room.

Use the claw multiple times without using Stasis and Daniels will call you to tell you to use Stasis on the claw.
