System Shock

Enter the dark, crumbling halls of Citadel Station, where danger lurks and survival is a razor’s edge away. It’s been twenty years, and now Nightdive Studios breathes new life into the original System Shock, blending classic thrills with today’s cutting-edge visuals and gameplay. More than just a remake, it carefully balances the original’s spirit with fresh graphics, sound, and mechanics that meet the demands of modern gamers. Support the creation of this game and be part of bringing a deeply atmospheric and haunting station to life once again.

The involvement of original talents like Terri Brosius, who gave SHODAN her sinister voice, guarantees a faithful yet fresh horror experience. The station’s atmosphere grows thicker with dread, making every moment tense and unpredictable.

Producer Warren Spector shares, “It was hard to predict that System Shock would maintain such a passionate following after 20 years.” He explains, “The heart of the game was giving players freedom to shape their journey, something that still stands strong.” “With upgraded tech, System Shock stands shoulder-to-shoulder with current games. Nightdive’s remake is the confirmation of that belief.” “SHODAN demands your support so we can all discover what’s next.”

Take on the role of a renowned hacker, feared and respected as the ultimate cyberspace thief among corporations. Captured mid-heist, your fate is tied to a greedy TriOptimum executive who holds your life in his hands. After half a year unconscious, you open your eyes to a station fallen into decay, where something horrific has taken hold. You quickly realize the station’s collapse isn’t accidental - something far worse has taken control. Citadel Station’s sleek labs have turned into battlegrounds filled with deadly cyborgs, deranged robots, and monstrous mutants, all enslaved to SHODAN's will. There’s barely a moment to react before SHODAN unleashes her first wave of terror...

Nightdive’s work brought System Shock and System Shock 2 back into circulation, earning fresh admiration from gamers everywhere. This remaster brings the game up to date with fully revamped visuals, high-quality audio, and streamlined controls for today’s players. Founder Paul Neurath celebrates Nightdive’s commitment to honoring the legacy of System Shock with this update. “It’s wonderful to see a world we helped create receive such thoughtful revival.”
