It appears that System Shock Remake will be most likely delayed to March 2023. This comes straight from its official Steam store page which now lists this new release date.
Prime Matter was originally planning to release this game in 2022. However, it’s been almost a year since that announcement and we still don’t have an ETA on when the game will come out. And, since the Steam store page was updated a few hours ago, we can assume that the game will miss its 2022 release window.
System Shock is a remake of the beloved PC classic, and will be using Unreal Engine 4. The remake will feature updated mechanics, graphics, and enemy A.I.
Furthermore, and from what we know so far, System Shock Remake will take advantage of NVIDIA’s DLSS tech.
Here are also the game’s key features:
- Fight to death in the depths of space
- Face off against the forces of a rogue AI gone mad
- Improve your skills and adapt to take on your foes
- Discover a non-linear story unfolding at your own pace
- Jack into cyberspace to hack the system and open other routes
- Innovative art style combines retro future design with modern technology
Stay tuned for more!

March is the end of the fiscal year so at least you know they’ll make that release date this time. Whether the game’s ready or not
I think when I backed the Kickstarter for this Obama was still the US President.
At least it seems to be coming out, unlike Squadron 42. I backed the Star CItizen Kickstarter a decade ago mainly for the chance to play a modern take on Wing Commander, S42.
Ye, i backed Star Citizen too. Waste of money.
Chris Roberts Sham Industries 🙂 never trust a gemini lol
but i’m a gemini :'(
for real tho lmao
No surprise
damn … this game would’ve been perfect in the lackluster 2022 end release schedule
now, its going to get buried in the jam packed early 2023 release window
It’ll come out. The game devs aren’t huge and with plenty of resources but I can see they’re razor focused on delivering a worthy remake.
I sure hope they decide to make those pixelated textures a graphics option, not forced or hard locked.
i like it, but it would be a feature not forced i agree
As a original backer from 2016 this comes as no surprise at all. They burned through all of the Kickstarter funding years ago which was far more than they asked for, then signed with a publisher for more funding and yet here we are. Even if this game were to hypothetically ever see the light of day it will be forever tarnished by Nightdive’s inept development and complete lack of honestly and transparency with the fans who financially are the reason this project exists at all.
And here we are in March 2023 and… still no game lmfao.
i remember there was a pc gamer article if i not mistaken that said that the game was almost done and it will be out soon, nope. I dont find this surprising considering how the kickstarter demo was a freaking corridor and some rooms and both demos they released later run so bad on a decent computer and kept showing the same areas, it feels the game will take longer to release than the amount of time the company who made the original existed.
