The last time we wrote about the sequel to the Shock 3 role -playing SIM in 2020, when other developers exchanged projects for Megapublisher Tencent. At that time, the others beside commented that “as a smaller independent studio, we made the project on our own.”
Now, Nightdive Studios – who owns the full rights to System Shock and has redoed the first game – appeared with the news that the System 3 project endured, in some way. We can clarify its situation in a year. Don’t call it a return, call it a sign of life.
The situation surrounding System Shock 3 is very complicated, the business development director of Night Nightdive, Larry Kuperman prevents GDC this week, in comments published by VGC.
Can we expect an appropriate update soon? Still not, yet, yet, Kuperman has continued. I don’t know when it will be clarified, but it may be likely within a year. Maybe, or may take more time. That said, what I can say is that we have a view of what we can do in what we control.
You will see a remaster version of System Shock 2, he added. Today I was asked twice why we didn’t do it again, and I said, ‘Are you an impression that because we make a remaster that we will not be able to do it in the future?’ That may be what I can confirm or refuse.
So, your prize title here: Nightdive can redo the System Shock 2 after their upcoming Remaster, will be released in June. When asked about the future of the series, in addition to reading existing games, Kuperman said: We will see what happens. I mean, there are things we can do in the first and second part. Some expanded later?
Those are all those who are not continuous. But I am satisfied with any sign that System Shock has a future in addition to playing the hit, and Nightdive seems to be able to hack a threequel. In our review of their shocking system, Jeremy Peel called it a loyal and loyal reconstruction version, proving the durability of the glass design.
Jeremy also had an interview with NightDive in detail how the studio searched the license, started with a phone conversation with an insurance company and ended with NightDive’s acquisition by Atari.
For others – the studio is co -founded by System Devs Devs Devs Paul Neurath and Warren Spector – currently working on a new, thick role -playing sim.
