Speaking as a fan of System Shock 2, this is great news to me. Though regarded as a fantastic game which inspired the Bioshock series, it shows its age. Sure the graphics can be modded into something more palpable to the modern player, but mechanically it’s still a bit rough.

Today, I am incredibly proud to announce that System Shock will be coming to PS4 around Q1 2018. We’re excited to be working with Sony on this and can’t wait to see what all of you think of the game!"

That issue is even worse for the System Shock, which is a 2D game with graphics similar to the earlier iterations of the DOOM franchise. Hopefully after the completion of this already hugely successful Kickstarter, I’ll have the chance to experience such an inspirational game.
