Critic Reviews for System Shock (2023)
It might be a little conservative, but this is a smart, faithful remake and easily the de facto way to play System Shock in the modern era.
System Shock deftly returns a classic immersive shooter to its place on top of the heap, updated for nearly anyone to enjoy.
A remake that closely follows the original classic, with a slightly different overall effect.
An oddly pitched remake that has its moments but adds very little to the original beyond a visual upgrade
Nightdive Studios may have taken seven years, but it's finally managed to do the impossible and thread the unlikely line between reboot and remake.
System Shock is, on paper, a brilliant remake that thoughtfully updates the 1994 original for modern systems, introducing both gyro aiming and mouse support along with a host of graphical upgrades. Unfortunately, the move over to the Switch 2 has tanked the performance, resulting in a game that never feels satisfying enough to play.Should this get fixed in the future, it may well be worth investigating, but for now, you'll be better off playing it on another platform.
System Shock on PS5 is a great opportunity for console players to experience Nightdive Studios excellent remake of a classic.
If you've always wanted to play System Shock but never had the chance, then this remake is the ideal entry point for you.
