Nightdive Studios has shown off (https://youtu.be/PWNDNZmw7o8?feature=shared) their upcoming remaster, System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition, at the indie horror showcase. This updated version transplants the 1999 classic to the KEX Engine, bringing with it all the modern comforts that the engine offers.
Nightdive has really been moving on these remasters. Star Wars: Dark Forces (https://www.destructoid.com/star-wars-dark-forces-is-getting-remastered-by-nightdive-no-less/) was just recently announced along with Turok 3 (https://www.destructoid.com/remaster-of-tentacle-filled-turok-3-shadow-of-oblivion-coming-from-nightdive-studios-november-14/), while SiN Reloaded got shunted a bit to the side to make room. System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition has been in the pipeline for a while, however, with it being promised to anyone who pre-ordered the System Shock remaster.

The Enhanced Edition comes with the added benefit of higher resolution, widescreen, and post-processing effects. The graphics have also been touched up, but in typical Nightdive fashion, they?re carefully tweaked to improve the look without altering the gameplay. It will also be available on consoles for the first time.
System Shock 2 was the first game from Irrational Games and was a sequel to Looking Glass Studios? 1994 title, System Shock. The title is held in high regard, and its design would influence its spiritual successor, 2007?s Bioshock. I?m sure some fans will be disappointed that Nightdive didn?t completely overhaul (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-system-shock-2023-retro-remake/) the 1999 title in the same way they did the original System Shock, but of the two titles, the latter definitely needed a lick of paint.
There?s still no release date for System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition aside from ?coming soon? and ?in the near future.? It will be coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
