    I am pleasantly surprised how good this game was, look at the game play and also. The lighting and textures that nightdive studios did i will continue to support them.

    This is a remake of the original system shock released in 1994. It is my first immersive sim video game, and I am really enjoying it so far. For 40 dollars, you should pick this up!

    Outstanding remake to an already classic game. As someone who played the original this was well worth the cost of admission.

    Awesome remaster of one of the best shooters. I feel like without this game we wouldn't have a the first person games we have today. Its challenging,fun and goes to show with enough love you can mix the old with the new.

    Must play remake

    A remake of one of the original immersive sims, System Shock does just about everything right. If you are a fan of games like Thief, Deus Ex, Dishonored, etc., you'll be right at home. If you aren't familiar with the genre, just be aware that some patience is required, as the game does not hold your hand, and objectives are never directly communicated to you. You have to explore the game space and come across audio logs and in universe lore to really understand what to do, and sometimes how and when to do it. I played it on PC primarily, but this PS5 version is very well done, everything runs solid, and controls have been adapted well.
