System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition is ‘coming soon’

System Shock 2 is getting an Enhanced Edition from developer Nightdive Studios. The team announced its plans to update the 1999 immersive sim in a post on Twitter last night and during a livestream on Twitch. This follows up on Nightdive’s work to release the Enhanced Edition of the first System Shock in 2015.

Nightdive hasn’t provided a lot more info about System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition. You should expect cleaned-up visuals, support for modern displays, and other general improvements. Do not, however, expect a full visual overhaul from this version. Nightdive is also working on a remake of the original System Shock. It is building that in the Unreal Engine, and it looks like a contemporary release. But if the studio ends up doing something like that, it will likely come after the launch of the Enhanced Edition.
