System Shock returns in 2024 as a premiere FPS narrative experience that shocks the player with each step. An easy recommendation for First-Person fans.
"System Shock Remake balances preserving what made the 1994 original such a widely respected piece of gaming history with bringing its themes, story and game design up to date."
- Stuart Cullen, TechStomper
Great game but I do have 1 big issue with the controls on PS5. Unlike most games where to sprint you just click the stick in once as you're moving, in this game you actually have to keep the stick pushed in the whole time. Very unpleasant. And there's no toggle in the settings to fix it.
So for anyone who plays the game on console, I'd recommend changing sprint to R1/RB. And change crouching to toggle instead of hold.
Matt writes, "System Shock is a faithful remake, for better or worse. While returning players or fans of the genre will find much to love, its game design may be too dated for newer players."
