System Shock Remake In Progress

System Shock is going to get a remake as the developer Night Dive Studios is working on it which will be well beyond the enhanced version of the game.

The developer gets the rights to the classic titles which are no longer available since 2013 and then re-releases by updating these titles to work with the modern hardware.

Night Dive re-released System Shock 2 first on GoG.com and then on Steam. In September this year, they released an enhanced version of the original game from 1994 which was developed by Looking Glass Technologies and produced by Deus Ex designer Warren Spector. System Shock caused an amazing influence on sci-fi shooters, Bioshock is one of many.

"The benchmark for intelligent first-person gaming. Kick-starting the revolution which would go on to give the world Deus Ex and which has influenced the design of countless other games", said Eurogamer back in 2007.

In an interview with Fastcompany, Night Dive said that they are working on a full remake of original game and they have acquired full rights. Stephen Kick, the founder of Night Dive is working with original concept artist of the game to know about the 1990's design.

The studio is also planning a console version of the game which will be their first. Kick also teased a possible System Shock 3 but that will require a bigger publisher.
