So why am I telling you all of this? Well, 13AM Games and publisher WayForward have announced that their beat-’em-up Dawn of the Monsters will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam in early 2022. We were subsequently spoiled with several other games in that style, notably Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee and its sequels, along with the Incognito Entertainment’s War of the Monsters. While they weren’t the deepest fighters, they did give us the dream of battling other kaiju in one-on-one battles. Old school gamers of kaiju mayhem remember SNK’s King of the Monsters games.

System Shock is due out later this year for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam, GOG.com and the Epic Games Store. Mercurius’ Tacticool Weapon ReplacementsĪnd yes, this also includes the new VR version of the game that Nightdive had given a sneak peek of a few weeks back.Īlongside all of that, Nightdive have also provided a few screenshots and videos showing their progress on the remake, so do check those out.Grosnus’ Hi-Res Spinning Marine/Navy/OSA logos.ACC’s Four Hundred (400) Hi-res Terrain Textures.Vurt’s Space Textures, Flora, Hi-res Water, Organics/Goo.Not only are all the character and weapons models being remade, but the devs have collaborated with the always-dedicated System Shock community to include many of the mods that SS2 fans have become accustomed to including in the game!

“It’s our intention to release both System Shock remake and SS2:EE around the same time,” explains Nightdive, who appear to be going above and beyond what you’d expect with the Enhanced Edition.Īs Nightdive puts it, the remaster has “evolved into more than what we were intending”. The pre-orders will go live for all console and PC versions of the game “near the end of February”, alongside a final demo that will include the medical level and cyberspace level, full dismemberment, all newly recorded voice lines, and “a ton of additional features and polish”.Īs an extra bonus, those who pre-order the System Shock remake will also be getting a copy of Nightdive’s other upcoming release in the series, System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition. As detailed in a new Kickstarter update, the team is set to not only have pre-orders begin next month, but also a “final demo” is set for release next month, as well. Things appear to be getting closer to wrapping up for Nightdive’s System Shock remake.
