This enhanced edition of the classic sci-fi RPG, System Shock, was developed by Nightdive Studios and first released in 2023. What Nightdive has done is bring the original 1994 classic into the modern age, with high definition graphics and a boatload of quality-of-life features.

The best new feature, IMHO, is the ability to toggle mouselook on and off. It makes such a difference to the gamplay and makes movement much more precise. Visually, I think the game looks superb at 1080p. Nightdive has managed to retain the pixellated goodness of the original, but also make it look sleek and modern at the same time.

The game is now much more customizable. Not just the controls, but the graphical effects as well. The new main menu even has mod management built-in.

System Shock: Enhanced Edition is an excellent remaster, and is arguably the best way to play the game. It’s far less clunky than the original and presents something that modern gamers can at least get into, maybe even complete.
