BioShock is one of my favorite games of all time, and I’ve always been aware that it was a spiritual successor to the System Shock series. Unfortunately I’ve never had the pleasure of playing those games, which were released in 1994 and 1999 respectively. But thankfully a chance to remedy that appears to be on the way.

A few years back Night Dive Studios acquired the rights to System Shock and began working on remastering the original game. The finished product is still off in the distance a bit, but the first peek at pre-alpha gameplay footage has now been released. You can check it out below.
