While more release dates were announced and missed, development seemed to be on track after 2020, with no reports of development restarting again. They also announced a 2020 release date at this time. Humanity is a brilliant puzzle game that never runs out of ideas. Street Fighter 6 is worth it for the excellent campaign alone. Later that year at GDC, Kick explained that development had restarted with a new team due to feature creep, and the cope of the game blowing out of proportion. The System Shock remake is a delightful surprise. Players who pre-order the revamped System Shock will get System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition.

System Shock will launch in late summer 2021 on the Epic Game Store, GOG, and Steam for 44.99. System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition is an upcoming source port of System Shock 2 developed by Nightdive Studios. The System Shock remake was announced almost seven years ago and has been a crowdfunded project ever since on Kickstarter. System Shock was a critical success and considered far ahead of its time. It was followed up in 1999 by System Shock 2. The goal was met less than a month later, and it went on to raise a total of $1.35 million by the end, with the additional funding set to be used for macOS and Linux versions.Īfter the Kickstarter, the game had a December 2017 release date, but this was pushed back during that year when Nightdive announced they would be developing the game un Unreal Engine 4 instead of Unity, essentially restarting development, which also saw Avellone leave the project. System Shock was the first game in the System Shock series, developed by LookingGlass Technologies (later to be called Looking Glass Studios), produced by Origin Systems and released on September 23rd, 1994. Nightdive later began a Kickstarter campaign in June 2016 to secure more funding for the game, with a total goal of $900,000. Veteran writer and designer, Chris Avellone, was only confirmed to be involved at this point.
