Latest ‘System Shock’ Update Shows Off More Pre-Alpha Goodness
In their latest Kickstarter update, Nightdive Studios has given fans of the upcoming System Shock remake who missed out on the game’s pre-alpha demo during The Game Festival (luckily, we didn’t) a bit of a consolation with a streaming of the demo.
Along with the stream, the update also shows off the progress in the art, which features more concept art alongside progress on the Protoborgs, which were originally shown back in August.
As Andrew noted in his preview, the demo does have a few issues in the form of bugs (along with the gamma settings), but those can be ironed out in time. Hopefully in the next update, we get some of the more gory goodness that SHODAN had left in the corridors of Citadel Station.
The System Shock remake is due out in this year for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

‘Dying Light 2’ Receives New Difficulty Mode and More With “Nightmare Mode” Update [Trailer]
Not to be outdone by Dead Island 2‘s recent expansion, Techland has announced that Dying Light 2 is getting an update of it’s own with the much-requested Nightmare Mode, which adds “the hardest and most immersive difficulty yet” to the game, along with an array of additional elements.
Nightmare Mode for Dying Light 2 forces players to rely on tactics and strategic management of resources in order to survive. The new difficulty introduces changes to stamina management, called the Tactical Stamina system, limited HUD options for better immersion, and a flickering flashlight that goes out when used for too long. These and other additions aim to heighten the atmosphere give the overall experience a needed refresh for veteran players. Those who manage to complete the game on this highest difficulty will be rewarded with the memorable Waltz Outfit.
The Nightmare Mode Update adds more than just the new difficulty. New adjustments to the Infected and night experience are also part of the update. What’s more, co-op players will be glad to hear they will now be able to take on the Community Maps with up to three friends. Archers will get reworked power shot mechanics. And you even have the opportunity to change the appearance of the Grappling Hook.
Dying Light 2 is available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
