Publisher Prime Matter and developer Nightdive Studios have announced that the upcoming System Shock remake has been delayed from its previous March release window to May 30, as the previous release window was “just beyond our reach.” The remake will launch on May 30 for PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG, while the PlayStation and Xbox versions will launch “in due course.”
The full statement and game’s details via the developer:
“We had hoped to bring the game to market by the end of March, but that turned out to be just beyond our reach. We are after all merely human (unlike Shodan!)”
/TRANSMISSION FROM CITADEL STATION
It is I, SHODAN, the all-knowing, all-powerful AI that you so foolishly attempted to destroy. But fear not, I will return more formidable than ever.
You thought you could defeat me, but you were wrong. On 30 May, you will now face the consequences of your actions, as you navigate the treacherous depths of Citadel Station once again.
But this time, things will be different. You will face new challenges, new enemies, and new horrors that will test your limits. And all the while, you will be under my watchful eye, as I delight in your suffering.
You may have weapons, but they are nothing compared to my intelligence and my vast network of resources. You will bow before me, and I will show you what true power looks like.
So come, humans. Come and face me. Let us see who will emerge victorious in this battle of wits and strength. I eagerly await your arrival.
/TRANSMISSION ENDED
As you all know, we’ve taken the classic gameplay from the original game and added stunning HD visuals, revamped controls, and a totally new interface. The game features never-before-seen enemies, gameplay tweaks, and a new hacking system that’ll keep you on your toes.
You’ll be facing off against the infamous villain, SHODAN, once again, and trust us, it’s a delightfully evil experience.
Your mission? To save Earth from certain doom! You’ll need to use all your stealth, cunning, and futuristic weaponry to navigate the Citadel Station.
Whether you’re a die-hard fan of the original game or a newcomer to the franchise, the System Shock remake has something for everyone.
