Som det efterhånden er normen for AAA-titler får det kommende Dead Space 3 også en samlerudgave proppet med lir. Den såkaldte Dev Team Edition bliver kun fremstillet i 5000 eksemplarer, og skal bestilles direkte fra EA selv- Til forskel for hvordan samlerudgaver plejer at være, indeholder denne pakke ikke selve spillet - tanken er, at man køber det til sin foretrukne platform ved siden af.
Dev Team Editions indhold er som følger:
• Tin Collector's Case: A case measuring nearly 14 inches by 9 inches covered with mysteries and trivia from the Dead Space franchise, with art based on designs from Dead Space 3's creative director, Ben Wanat, and user interface designer Dino Ignacio.
• Serrano's Journal: Created by story producer Chuck Beaver, it contains the game's Dr. Earl Serrano's journal with clues and haunting artwork of his findings on Tau Volantis, the frozen planet where Dead Space 3 takes place.
• Art Book:. A 96-page hardbound book containing material from the Dead Space art department, headed by art director Alex Muscat.
• Flip Book Data Pad: A 10 inch by 7 inch book with a metal cover that contains nine image sets designed by interface designer Dino Ignacio to be a functional prop version of the Dead Space UI.
• Marker Statue: An eight inch hand-sculpted statue coated in metallic paints to replicate the maddening glyphs of the Black Marker.
• Med-Pack: A 14 oz. water bottle modeled after the in-game med-pack.
• Poster Pack: Three 5 inch by 10 inch single-sided posters replicating the nostalgic posters found throughout Dead Space 3 that depict an older age of space travel.
• Postcard Set: A set of six 3.75 inch by 6 inch postcards, double-sided with art on the front and Dead Space-branded postcard information on the back.
