System Shock is getting a remaster, and fans of the title couldn’t be more excited. The title was incredibly influential, and pieces of it can be found as the building blocks of series such as Bioshock, Deus Ex, and Halo. For those who remember the original 1994 release, or for those who want to better understand where their favorite games came from, the release of System Shock Remake on May 30 will be an important one.
Still, when System Shock was first released it was only available on PC, as consoles had only just started to make their way into households. Many are wondering if the remake will follow in those footsteps, or if consoles such as the Xbox will get a chance to enjoy the game in this day and age.
This short guide will go over the release of the System Shock Remake, noting whether or not the title will be available on Xbox, and what other mediums the game will be available on, so that anyone who wants the chance to play will know if they can come release day.
Will System Shock Remake Be Available on Xbox?
The System Shock Remake will be available on Xbox, but not when the game releases on May 30.
The game will be released on PC originally, with a planned port for both the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. However, there is no current planned release day for the ports to these systems.
What Systems Will System Shock Remake Be Available On?
The game is set to be released on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox X|S. The release date for the PC version is May 30. Every other version has yet to receive a release date.
While it is disappointing that console players will have to wait longer to play the game, it may not be surprising. System Shock was originally only released on PC, and the developers have stated that they want to create an experience that’s as true to the original game as possible. It makes sense that the developers would start developing for the same original medium, then move on to console ports later down the line.
