As production continued, the developer's ambitions grew: first, to switch from the Unity Engine to the more graphically capable Unreal Engine. Nightdive soon built its reputation porting old games to run on modern systems. After System Shock: Enhanced Edition, Nightdive launched a Kickstarter fundraiser to remake System Shock in the modern Unity Engine while making the controls, HUD, and puzzles more intuitive for modern players.Īfter raising over $1.3 million, the developers at Nightdive Studios built up their original System Shock remake demo, adding more enemies, rooms, and iconic weapons. Their first release was an updated re-release of System Shock 2, another critically acclaimed sci-fi horror game that had fallen to the wayside after the closure of Looking Glass Studios. Nightdive Studios has a long history with the System Shock series.
