Nightdive and Prime Matter have introduced that the upcoming System Shock remake has as soon as once more been delayed. The sport was initially slated to launch later this month, however will now as an alternative arrive on PC on Might thirtieth. Launch dates for the console variations will apparently be forthcoming quickly.
Again in January, Nightdive stated it was assured that it might meet the March launch window for System Shock, citing the appointment of writer Prime Matter and the evolution of the sport’s “scope and scale” as causes. Now, nevertheless, the developer has revealed that it will not be capable to meet that March deadline in any case.
In a publish on the System Shock Steam web page, Nightdive says that though it had hoped to launch System Shock in March, that launch window turned out “to be simply past our attain; we’re, in any case, merely human”. No additional motive is given for why the sport wasn’t prepared for launch in March, however we will infer that extra polish or improvement time was doubtless wanted.
Nightdive by no means gave a particular date when it introduced the March launch window, however we have got one now, so let’s hope the sport can meet its Might thirtieth launch date deadline. Sadly, this date solely applies to the PC model of the sport; the console variations will, in response to Nightdive, be arriving “sooner or later”, and extra info might be accessible about these variations quickly.
The System Shock remake initially debuted on Kickstarter again in 2016, and has been topic to quite a few delays since then. This is not the one System Shock mission that seems to have struggled throughout improvement, both; the upcoming System Shock 3 was picked up by Chinese language gaming large Tencent in 2020, and we have not heard a lot about it since then, so we will solely speculate as to the place it is likely to be within the improvement pipeline.
System Shock is because of launch on PC by way of Steam on Might thirtieth. Console variations for PlayStation and Xbox will observe. Watch this area for more information.
