System Shock Remake Delayed Until March 2023

It seems that the remake of the iconic techno-horror title System Shock might not be releasing as soon as fans thought as a new date drops.

gamerant.com

It seems that the release window may have been pushed back again, according to the recently updated Steam page for the System Shock remake, which now lists the current release date as March 2023. This would make the System Shock remake the latest in a long list of highly anticipated 2022 releases that have been delayed into next year. Nightdive Studios has yet to comment on the game's new release window, though the company did retweet Wario64's announcement of the change.

It was supposed to come out in 2017, what's 6 more months?

I can think I can wait, I never played the original so its been nearly 30 years I haven't been playing SS when I could have. Demo was cool, amazing sound design and presentation with all the lights and displays.

And it'll still be a buggy mess when they release it, wanna bet?

 

[Ulysses 31]

Dunno, does Nightdive have a track record of releasing buggy stuff?

[amigastar]

Jeez, 2023 will be stuffed with games, right?

 

[Connificent]

Lesson learned. Never support Kickstarter.

nah. Most of this stuff won't come out in 2023. But re4 remake will and that's probably enough

 

[TintoConCasera]

Aw shit, one of my most anticipated games got delayed... Again.

Been holding on playing the original to go fresh into this one. Hope it doesn't disappoint.

 

[AV]

I don't remember it having a set date, honestly. Take your time, I'll play it when it's ready, we've waited long enough.

 

[Doczu]

Lesson learned. Never preorder

Pre order? Dude i backed the kickstarter for a PC key when they made one, still havent got a PC to play it but promised to double dip on PS4.
And thry wont let me

 

[The Cockatrice]

Called it, but ppl booed me. This will get delayed forever. These devs are a fucking scam.

 

[Negotiator101]

Absolutely love this scene from the 1978 Superman. Christopher Reeves is still the best to wear the Cape.

 

[adamsapple]

Q1 2023 is gonna make a lot of gamers broke.

 

[amigastar]

nah. Most of this stuff won't come out in 2023. But re4 remake will and that's probably enough

Idk man, Starfield, Diablo 4, RE4 Remake, Dead Space Remake, Hogwarts Legacy, Street Fighter 6 will all come in 2023 for sure.

need to cope after news of this delay

 

[Barakov]

That's fine. What's one more game to add to the GROWING LIST that's coming out in 2023.

 

[Arsic]

2023 is beyond packed with games.

You either gotta take up sucking dick, or getting a 2nd mortgage to afford all this shit.

 

[Arsic]

Idk man, Starfield, Diablo 4, RE4 Remake, Dead Space Remake, Hogwarts Legacy, Street Fighter 6 will all come in 2023 for sure.

Add path of exile 2, final fantasy 16, baldurs gate 3, like a dragon ishin, wo long, wu kong, exoprimal, eidyn chronicles, dead space remake ,and a fuck ton more you can't even begin to list out .

[ProgenitorCastle]

I hope it will be worth the wait, I am curious about playing a modern version of the original Shock game so I'm hoping this delivers

 

[Putonahappyface]

 

[Killer8]

Fucksake.

Remember when this was meant to come out late 2017? It's getting harder and harder to care when it keeps missing release dates for years.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

We got to play System Shock Remake for the first time, the upcoming from-the-ground-up rebirth of the highly influential emergent gameplay first-person RPG/shooter/action-adventure that first debuted in 1994.

 

[amigastar]

Will this System Shock Remake release on Game Pass? Can't find anything.

No, they haven't announced anything like that so far.

 

[amigastar]

No, they haven't announced anything like that so far.

Ah, too bad, thanks

 

[Connificent]

First preview?

 

[ACESHIGH]

I have preordered this thing like 2 years ago. They would also provide you with a copy of system shock 2 enhanced edition... let's see if that happens.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

How you can work for a gaming outlet and never played System Shock game before?

 

[Fuz]

 

[AJUMP23]

It came out years ago and is still great.

After our return from Gamescom we've been hesitant to share anything so as not to spoil any remaining surprises we have in store. However, we've picked a few last things to share before our quickly approaching launch window of March, 2023.

As some of you have already pointed out this is not our first time announcing a tentative launch window, but over the past few years much has changed - the scope and scale of the project has evolved dramatically and with Prime Matter joining the project it's enabled us to focus on quality-of-life improvements, bug fixing, and localization support - the last major steps towards releasing a game we're all incredibly proud of. This has also given us time to go back and polish various aspects of the game that needed that extra shine.

To the shocking surprise of noone System Shock has been delayed, for the million time, again:

System Shock - SHODAN's return is Imminent: System Shock drops on 30 May - Steam News

HACKERS! The wait is (almost) over. The PC edition of System Shock – the fully fledged remake of the groundbreaking original from 1994 – will be released on 30 May this year. We had hoped to bring the game to market by the end of March, but that turned out to be just beyond our reach; we are...

Now may.

They bit off more than they could chew, and are now kicking the can down the road every few months. The whole industry needs to hear this…STOP ANNOUNCING RELEASE DATES AND WINDOWS THAT YOU CANNOT HIT. They should feel embarrassed that they had to delay it AGAIN

Unsurprising but is this the first time they've actually stuck a number on the month at least?

I'm seeing Beyoncé that night anyway so SS can wait
