Almost exactly a year on from the PC launch, System Shock Remake will finally come to Xbox. Announced today by publisher Prime Matter, Nightdive Studios will be ready to unleash the console version of its classic remake on May 21st, 2024.
As a precursor to the legendary Bioshock, System Shock is an old school immersive sim from the '90s that never made its way to console in any fashion. Last year's PC remake was very well received too, so we're glad to see the series make its Xbox debut in just a couple of months.

Here's what to expect from Nightdive's conversion of System Shock:
"System Shock is the fully fledged remake of the ground breaking original from 1994, combining cult gameplay with all-new HD visuals, updated controls, an overhauled interface and all-new sounds & music; it even has the original voice actor of SHODAN, one of gaming’s most iconic villains.
Witness the rebirth of one of the greatest and most influential games ever created."
This new version of System Shock will be a cross-gen release, so it's probably best not to expect cutting edge next-gen visuals here. The tech behind the remake will of course be a huge upgrade over the original though, and we're excited to find out how the game fares on console this May.

Woohoo 😎 was interested when heard and saw this and then no news since think October was wondering wth is happening 😂😭goods news it's still coming though 😎
I have been waiting for this game for months!
Finally it's coming out, the FPS genre is my favourite and I have never played the original game so looking forward to this.
Awesome!
Also, surprised there hasn’t been a story here yet about the Grandia ports coming to Xbox. Nice to see some of these JRPGs we’ve never had on Xbox!
I was wondering when the console versions would release, it's been TBA for a long time.
Magnificent news, loved the original way back when though I was probably too young for stuff like that. Regardless it definitely left an impression on me. This looks excellent!
Finally! I've been waiting for this game for so long.
I remember when it came out for PC back in the days...
It's a great game, but I thought it would be more of an ImSim than it turned out to be.
Why is there still no story about Grandia HD Collection coming to Xbox? With all the news about other JRPGs skipping Xbox, it’s kind of a big deal that this series will be making its first appearance on the console.
Would be a nice game pass day one
@awp69 sometimes when the Xbox release lags so far behind, it gets lost. I’m still waiting for an update on Octopath traveler 2, which was supposed to come out “early 2024”. not really early 2024 anymore! Would be a good opportunity to get grandia collection and Octopath 2 on game pass tho…
Heck yeah. Day one. Man, I'm old.
