System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition shows off a major visual upgrade in new screens: 'All cinematics, textures, characters and weapon models have been updated'

The System Shock remake is almost here, which makes this a fine time to recall that developer Nightdive Studios is also working on an update of System Shock 2. The System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition, as it's formally known, won't be a full do-over like the upcoming remake of System Shock, but it does promise to make Irrational's great immersive sim look and play as well as it possibly can.

System Shock 2 was originally released in 1999, and even back then it wasn't a great-looking game. It was a brilliantly good one, though—it's no exaggeration to say that System Shock 2 is the game that made me a forever fan of the immsim genre—and while it unfortunately wasn't a sales hit, it earned widespread critical acclaim and proved tremendously durable and influential: There is literally no BioShock without System Shock.

Over the years, fans have created various mods and visual upgrade packages to give System Shock 2 a much-needed facelift, but it's a real hassle getting them all collected and installed. That's one thing the Enhanced Edition aims to simplify: pulling all those disparate resources together in a single package.
