Their name is derived from their constant twitching and spasmodic behavior. They also make distinctive jabbering noises when they get close. Due to their incredible speed, they are very capable of dodging Isaac's weapons in harder difficulties when they see it coming.

It also causes them to have highly erratic and spastic movements, and their features seem to blur as they move when seen close up. Because of the reversed Stasis Module merged into their bodies, Twitchers can react and move several times faster than any other Necromorph variant, making them very hard to hit before they close in to melee range. They are physically similar to Slashers in most aspects.Ī disturbing side-effect of the transformation is that the Stasis modules become fused with the resulting creature, and the effect of the Stasis Module are strangely reversed, with terrifying results. The Twitchers are the result of the Necromorph infection converting the corpses of people who were equipped with built-in Stasis Modules (such as soldiers, security personnel or special division scientists). 2.2 Titan Station Security Officer TwitcherĬoncept art of an EDF Marine Twitcher in Dead Space (2023).
