After Otherside Entertainment finally showed off what they’ve been working on with System Shock 3, the question of what’s going on with Nightdive Studios’ remake of System Shock wasn’t far behind.
After having the game be delayed and development restarted after the switch to the Unreal Engine, and the Adventure Alpha footage (that lacked enemies, but looked awesome), we’ve finally gotten the big one: A 20-minute video showing off a more complete version of the Medical Bay level of the game, complete with enemies.
This version absolutely nails the look and atmosphere you’d want in System Shock. All that’s missing is the techno soundtrack by Greg LoPiccolo and Tim Ries. Well okay, that might not be as appropriate with this version, but damn it if this wasn’t worth the wait. Hopefully the development continues on this way, and we get to see more of Citadel Station.
System Shock is due out in 2020 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
