Nightdive Studios Reintroduces System Shock® 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster

Today, Nightdive Studios announced that System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition — its modernized edition of the 1999 classic sci-fi horror action role-playing game — has been renamed to System Shock® 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster and will soon be available for Windows PC and consoles. A release date will be revealed at GDC 2025 during the Future Game Show Spring Showcase livestream. 

The original System Shock 2 revolutionized storytelling, atmosphere, and gameplay in the medium, inspiring a generation of titles to follow. It completely reshaped the way gaming audiences viewed the potential for storytelling in first-person games and went on to win over a dozen awards and "Game of The Year" recognitions. 

It's the year 2114. As you awake from cryo sleep on the FTL ship Von Braun, you are unable to remember who or where you are... and something has gone terribly wrong. Hybrid mutants and deadly robots roam the halls while the cries from the remaining crew reverberate through the cold hull of the ship. SHODAN, a rogue AI bent on the destruction of mankind has taken over, and it's up to you to stop her. Delve through the corridors of the derelict ship Von Braun and immerse yourself in the story-rich atmosphere and environment. Explore deck by deck and unravel the horrifying fate of the Von Braun and her crew.

System Shock® 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster will soon be released on Windows PC via Steam and GOG and on PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. System Shock® 2 (Classic) is additionally on a week-long 85% off sale on Steam and GOG until February 21, 2025.
