New System Shock Remake Update Gives A New Ending And Female Protagonist
The next update for the System Shock remake is coming on April 11, and it adds a brand-new ending along with a bunch of other features such as a female protagonist.
In an interview PC Gamer, Nightdive founder Stephen Kick said that the new ending is a response to the criticism of the original final boss. It was a virtual reality puzzle and shooter section with different mechanics from System Shock’s core gameplay.
“A lot of the criticism that we received was: you spent this whole game collecting items, gearing yourself up for this big battle, and then all of your stuff was gone,” Kick explained. “You’re left with just this one weapon to play what boils down to a minigame.” As a result, it was completely reworked.
