Nightdive Studios presents a new teaser of its highly anticipated upcoming game, System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition. It is set to launch officially later this month but there has yet been an official release date that is set in stone. However, those that have pre-ordered System Shock will be able to get a copy of the remastered version at no additional cost when it is released by Prime Matter.
The new System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition look showcases elevated cinematics, new textural designs, weapon models, and characters that have never been seen before. Additionally, the developer also joined forces with Systemshock.org so that it is able to integrate the community-made patches and mods into the new remaster.
