Westwood’s classic 1997 point-and-click Blade Runner game is making a comeback. Nightdive Studios, the folks behind the refreshed versions of Turok and System Shock, are bringing Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition to PC, PS4, Steam, and Xbox One with updated character models, animations, and cutscenes.

An improved version of System Shock 2 is in the works. Nightdive Studios, which is currently working on remastering the first System Shock, announced it’s also working on System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition during a Twitch stream last night celebrating the game’s 20th anniversary.

Nightdive Studios have released footage of the “Adventure Alpha” of their System Shock remake. The footage was linked in a Kickstarter update that has a lot of info about doors. There is currently no release date for the game. 

Today Nightdive Studios released the source port update for System Shock: Enhanced Edition on PC. Not to be confused with the full remake the studio is working on, the update does things like add higher resolution options and mod support for the existing version, while also fixing many of its bugs. 

Did you know that Forsaken is getting a remastered PC release on July 31? I’ll bet you didn’t. Nightdive Studios, currently working on remastering System Shock, appears to be looking for some extra cash by reviving the 1998 dystopic shooter few remember beyond its haunting box art. 2018 continues to amaze.

Following up on its remaster of the original Turok last year, Nightdive Studios is releasing the remastered Turok 2: Seeds of Evil for PC on March 16, with new enemies, weapons, levels and an online multiplayer mode. Prepare to be Cerebral Bored out of your skull.

System Shock is officially getting a remake, thanks to a successfully Kickstarter campaign that raised $1.35 million. The game is scheduled for December 2017 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, but remember, these games tend to slip! If you’re impatient, there’s a playable demo on Steam.
