System Shock isn't the first game the studio's remade.

Deus Ex and System Shock producer Warren Spector joined the studio to lead development on System Shock 3. It looks similar to what you can see in System Shock Remastered's demo. The developer confirmed the news in 2015 and released short snippets of gameplay footage earlier this year. Night Dive Studios is also working on System Shock 3. Additionally, the demo has controller support, though you'll need a mouse to make your way through its options.

It's weird to see System Shock look this good-it definitely has promise. The System Shock Remastered demo takes up less than 500 MB of space and offers about 10 minutes of gameplay that delivers a fair amount of nostalgia. 'This demo represents the look and feel that we want to achieve with the final version we'll deliver to you, our backers.We hope you enjoy your time aboard Citadel Station! SHODAN eagerly awaits your arrival.' Ken Levine, who was the designer on System Shock 2, was the creative lead on BioShock.'We want to demonstrate our commitment and passion for System Shock by providing a fun and exciting experience to potential backers,' the description reads. Irrational Games, the studio that developed System Shock 2, went on to create the BioShock franchise as a 'spiritual successor'. It re-released the original version of System Shock 2, patched to run on modern computers, in February 2013. Nightdive Studios acquired the rights to System Shock and its sequel, System Shock 2, in 2012. They are also working on randomising the puzzles that appear in the game. Enemies now drop random loot and can respawn. In an interview on Shacknews, Nightdive said that they have also added random elements to the game. Nightdive said that they have added a new look and feel to the game, but kept all the classic stylings, story, and gameplay of the original. The remake is a return to the 2072 cyberpunk world originally created by LookingGlass Technologies back in 1994. The demo is available on GOG.com and Steam. Nightdive Studios has announced the release of a new demo of its remake of cult classic System Shock.
