The time has come, puny insects. The award-winning System Shock remake, based on the iconic 1994 sci-fi action game, is available now worldwide on consoles. Nightdive Studios’ stunningly faithful recreation of the classic shooter/immersive sim was released to critical acclaim in 2023 for PC.
Now, console players can go toe-to-toe with SHODAN — the original rogue AI with evil intent — on PlayStation 4|5 and Xbox One and Series X|S as they explore the dark depths of Citadel Station and singlehandedly try and save Earth from destruction.
The System Shock remake combines the gameplay of the original title with all-new HD visuals, updated controls, an overhauled interface and all-new sounds and music.
Nightdive Studios worked closely with many of the original System Shock team members, including Terri Brosius, the original voice of one of gaming’s most iconic villains: SHODAN.
For the first time ever, the incredible world of System Shock is available to console gamers – We’re so excited to introduce our take on this pioneering piece of gaming history to a whole new audience.
