However, development has gone back and forth, starting with a game engine swap from Unity to Unreal Engine in 2017, before development was put on hold in 2018 and restarted with a new team. There’s no date yet for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4 or Xbox One versions of the game, but given the number of delays the game has had, it’s probably wisest just to take assurance that System Shock is coming to console eventually.This System Shock remake was partially funded by a Kickstarter that ran in the middle of 2016, at the time with an estimated release of December 2017. The news comes as the System Shock remake is due for release on May 30th for PC. The studio has also reworked the co-op multiplayer too. Nightdive Studios has been working closely with System Shock fans to integrate mods and updates that have been created previously into this version. You can download the demo on Steam (scroll down to the download image/button), but it looks like the Linux demo is not up on GOG or Humble Store yet.Ĭonsidering how good it looks and feels, I'm even tempted to help fund it.The footage shows how the textures, cinematics, and weapon models have been updated for this edition of the game. A minor issue considering this is really early stuff. I tested the Demo and it does seem to run fine on my PC, and wow it really does look good! It does have one issue where the sound will screw up and be distorted if you try to alt+tab. According to Kicktraq, at the current pledging level they will hit around $1.6 million so it looks like they will easily hit the goal. They say you need to install some audio library manually, but it worked for me without it.Īt the time of writing they are about $63,670 away from hitting the Linux + Mac stretch goal. They are doing it for Linux first as it has seen much more demand over a Mac version.
As promised the System Shock Pre-Alpha Demo is now available on Linux due to demand for it and closing in on the Linux + Mac stretch goal.
