The console launch of the System Shock remaster is finally here and we have a reminder for those who had to wait for System Shock again
The time has come for the console gamers to head out and face down SHODAN in the System Shock remaster. This is something that PC gamers have had a bit of a chance to do already, but here we are with Nightdive Studios wrapping things up and launching the game on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. A launch that has gone down and you just need to head out to pick up the System Shock remaster on your selected console as you wish. However, it is still only available digitally for the older systems if you have not upgraded your rigs and gaming stations in a while.
As usual, along with the launch of this version of System Shock, we have a new trailer to look at and get us more excited to give the game another go. If you have seen some of the PC footage out there already or just remember the game that well from the past, a good portion of this is all from early in the run of System Shock so there is no real worry of spoilers out there. Not that many should be too concerned about that since the game is rather old and there have been many dropped out there before this remaster was in the works… In any instance, have a look at the latest for the game and then give it a go if it looks like something you are going to want to pick up.
