System Shock is a complete remake of the genre defining classic from 1994, rebuilt from the ground up with the Unity Engine.

System Shock was one of the first 3D games that took a methodical approach to exploration while revealing a story driven narrative through audio logs and messages scattered throughout the game world. It was a revolutionary step forward for the medium in a time when developers first began experimenting with interactive story telling.

Players were trapped aboard Citadel Station as they fought to survive against the cyborgs and mutated crew members corrupted by a maniacal A.I. known as SHODAN, one of the most treacherous antagonists ever conceived. System Shock offered an unparalleled experience that would solidify it as one of the greatest games of all time.

The highly anticipated System Shock reboot by Night Dive Studios, which was expected to launch simultaneously on various platforms in March 2023, has been postponed. System Shock launched on PC on May 30, 2023. The game was released for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 on May 21, 2024.
