PC Gamer UK March issue on sale now: System Shock reborn!

by Arthur · February 2, 2023

This month we delve into the cyberpunk, sci-fi horror dystopia of the System Shock remake, which sees the ultimate rogue AI, SHODAN, hack the PC Gamer cover. Our in-depth feature sees us preview the game on the brink of launch, as well as giving us exclusive access to insider developers and commentary. This is no simple remaster of the original game either, with developer Nightdive Studios spending eight years upgrading almost everything about the game. It looks actually promising, and we’re sure you’ll be as excited as we are after getting the full lowdown.
