The System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster pages are on GOG & Steam
-
Oh yeah.
The night dive remake of System Shock was awesome.
I played the original as a kid and it was just too hard. I also played SS2 and completed that: my gods that was a terrifying game.
I can't wait.
-
One of my all time favorites. This looks like a real remaster rather than SS1's remake. Either way looking forward to revisiting the Von Braun and the Rickenbacker.
-
Definitely.
Immersive sim is a scant genre with some of my favorite games. We need more of them, so its good that the OGs have been getting so much love.Thanks for sharing this, wishlisted.
The remake of SS1 was so masterfully done i had hoped SS2 would get the same treatment... But this heavy remaster looks like itll do just fine. Thank god itll have controller support.
-
I really enjoyed playing the first one on a flight, on my Steam Deck. So I'm hoping this next will play just as well!
-
Speaking of.. anyone played the remake? Thinking of picking it up.
-
Oh yeah they are perfect games for the deck! Im sure the sequel will run great too.
-
Of the first? Yes! Its incredible. They did such a good job keeping the original game there with lovely new textures.
I haven't the nostalgia of playing the original at release (or ever), but I really enjoyed System Shock Remake. You won't regret it! It goes pretty cheap quite regularly on GOG, also
-
Thanks! I played the original on PC, but now due to lack of a rig, I'm on ps. It's been just long enough that I've forgotten the details, but remember it was a good time. It'll be like playing it for the first time all over again.
-
Let us know how you find it!
I'd love to hear what you think, after such a long time between play-throughs! -
After the System Shock 1 Remake getting such rave reviews I was hoping the second game would get the same treatment. Are they not remaking the sequel?
-
Sweet, I grabbed system shock 2 free like a decade ago ... We'll get this as an update right...?
-
Lol right? I bounced off ss2 a couple times because it was too scary for younger me. A few years later I got the itch to give it another go, but I had to downgrade my graphics drivers to get it to run on my system so I forced myself to finish it that time lol
-
Those damned monkeys...
You're creeping around in the dark, already on a knife edge... oooh oooh aaah.
-
Yeah, the remake was really good, but I'll warn you, it's pretty hard. Like, frustratingly hard. And if I remember you can't change the difficulty mid-game, so you may just want to play it on easier difficulty.
-
One of the best ever made. I remember a SS2 remaster/remake being in the works a few years ago, but it got cancelled.
-
Nice! Is this basically SS2 with QoL and graphical enhancements mods? Or are these changes being created in-house?
-
I really enjoyed it. First game in a while that could scratch that Prey-itch.
-
There is a SS1 remake. I really enjoyed it.
-
Guess not. I really liked the remake of the first game. Was a lot of fun.
-
Yup! I thought it was a really fun game. I didn't play the original so I cannot comment on adherence to the source. But as a standalone game I really enjoyed my time with it.
