The System Shock remake has been through a bumpy development cycle.

It was originally announced back in 2015, after Nightdive successfully remastered the game for its Enhanced Edition.

Despite that turbulence, System Shock looks like an equally faithful and beautiful resurrection of the 1994 sci-fi adventure.

Sci-fi immersive sim System Shock is being remade by Nightdive Studios, who remastered the original for its Enhanced Edition.

Other updates include an overhauled interface, a revamped hacking system, and remastered sound effects and music.

The remake looks and sounds great, but how does it play?

Edpreviewed the gamelast year, and he said it had the magnetic pull of the best immersive sims.
