The game was initially developed as a Kickstarter campaign in 2016, raising over $ 1.3 million from just over 21,000 backers. The makers say in an update on Kickstarter that the development of the game came with some bumps, but that the game is faithful to the original game. The game should be released at the end of the summer.

The System Shock remake, like the original game, revolves around an anonymous hacker who wakes up on a space station after a six-month sleep. On board, murderous robots, cyborgs and mutants have taken over. The artificial intelligence of the space station SHODAN is the culprit. The hacker must regain control of the space station by fighting and hacking through the enemies.

Citadel Station space station has been renovated and has new areas, puzzles and secrets to discover. Enemies have also been revised and improved. Musician and voice actress Terri Brosius has again voiced Shodan. The audio logs that were so important to the lore have been re-recorded in the original game.
