Thankfully, it seems that won’t be the case, as Nightdive have announced System Shock pre-orders will open in February. Development would later resume, but updates have been sporadic, leading some to believe the game would end up as vaporware. The project was successfully crowdfunded back in 2015, but hit a speedbump three years later when developer Nightdive Studios admitted they’d taken a “wrong path” and squandered most of their Kickstarter cash. It seems like the long-in-development System Shock remake is actually going to arrive this year.
