It walked so a lot of games could run, so it was always going to be a tall order to remake such an incredible, yet unoptimized classic. It introduced a first-person semi-RPG adventure that would go on to inspire elements of BioShock, Half-Life, and so many other story-heavy shooters. Aside from first-person action, the game also features unique gameplay mechanics such as hacking in cyberspace.System Shock was a foundational game for a lot of reasons. Players will get to face multiple unique enemies, gather resources, find weapons, and survive inside a space station called Citadel.

The game follows the furious actions of an AI called SHODAN, who has turned rogue after humans' failed attempt to destroy it. Now, after almost three decades, Nightdive Studios is attempting to release a loyal remake of the original experience with some enhancements in the gameplay to make it fit into today's gaming taste. The game become a source of inspiration for many other successful titles thanks to its innovative use of physics and 3D graphics. Originally released back in 1994, System Shock is a cult immersive-sim first-person survival experience with horror elements. RELATED: Games Need To Stop With The All Ghostly Flashbacks
