Nightdive Studios Kicks of 2023 with a Bang: System Shock Release Date, SHADOW MAN: REMASTERED Named Digital Foundry’s RGOTY
The remake of the genre-defining 1994 classic System Shock has been on the radar of fans for some time now, and Nightdive has worked tirelessly to breathe new life into the game with a full-fledged — and absolutely stunning — remake that’ll shine on modern hardware.
With gorgeous new visuals and a brutal dismemberment system, the iconic title welcomes players new and old back to Citadel Station and the arms of the delightfully villainous SHODAN. In the homestretch of development, Nightdive Studios and publisher Prime Matter have spent the time ironing out details and making sure the game has that little bit of extra spice that fans will appreciate. From never before seen enemies and quality of life gameplay tweaks, to a revamped hacking system and visceral new combat options, the System Shock remake will be every bit as immersive and entertaining as fans have been hoping.

SHADOW MAN: REMASTERED had itself quite the year in 2022. The remaster of the 1999 cult classic turned heads towards the Deadside with its stellar gameplay and completely overhauled aesthetics — so much so that Digital Foundry’s John Linneman named it Best Retro Game of 2022.
Linneman said of SHADOW MAN: REMASTERED, “The exploration, finding secrets, and slowly unraveling the secrets of Deadside still manages to thrill all these years later.” He continued, “If you enjoy old-school, hard-as-nails action-adventure games from yesteryear, I can’t recommend Shadow Man enough!”
