System Shock 2 remaster release date – when you can return to Von Braun
System Shock 2 is getting the remaster treatment, bringing the classic sci-fi survival horror game to a whole new audience. But when can you actually play it?
System Shock 2 is making a return with a fresh new look, and soon you'll be able to utilise its multiplayer feature to assemble a team and finally defeat Shodan.
It appears there's no better time to launch a game about the takeover of a malevolent AI (despite having seen it numerous times before), so we're fortunate to be receiving a new remaster of System Shock 2. The sci-fi survival classic is set for a grand return following the significant remake of the first game, introducing the PC game to a wider audience with a fresh new look that makes it even more terrifying than ever. This comes as a treat for science fiction fans, especially with the arrival of a remastered Warhammer 40K: Space Marine on Xbox Game Pass.
The classic has undergone the remaster process, marking a significant shift from its predecessor's remake, which successfully captured the original game's remarkable atmosphere, narrow corridors and eerie happenings around every heavily-plated corner. Fans of survival games certainly have much to look forward to, with Prologue Go Wayback's numerous playtests and the massive Fallout 76 Gone Fission update.
There are plenty of futuristic horrors lurking in the halls of Von Braun, but when exactly can we get our hands on it?Here's what you need to know about the System Shock 2 remaster release date.
System Shock 2 remaster release date
The release date for the System Shock 2 remaster is scheduled for Thursday, June 26 at 1pm local time, excluding most American timezones. This information has been disclosed by the game's PlayStation Store page.
The 1pm release time applies to worldwide timezones and the East Coast of the US, while other American timezones will see the game launch at whatever this time equates to in their region, which is 10am PDT / 12pm CDT on the West Coast and in central areas.
While it's a somewhat perplexing system, it does ensure that players globally will have the opportunity to delve into the remaster at their own speed, familiarising themselves with the corridors of Von Braun before everyone is set to dive into multiplayer and defeat Shodan once and for all. It's undoubtedly a daunting task, but it's what many players are aiming to achieve, so assemble your team and get the job done.

JoJo Siwa abruptly cancels gay pride gig over 'pressure' to brand her sexuality
JoJo Siwa will no longer be taking part in a Pride event in Chicago next weekend - with the news being announced a day after she candidly opened up about her sexuality journey JoJo Siwa has abruptly pulled out of a gay pride performance just hours after revealing she felt "pressured" to brand herself a lesbian. The 22-year-old American singer has been on a high profile romantic journey since April this year when she met Love Island star Chris Hughes in the UK Celebrity Big Brother house. Viewers watched on in surprise as the pair grew closer and closer over the course of their time in the house. Eyebrows were raised as JoJo was dating an Australian content creator called Kath Ebbs at the time. Once the show ended, Kath was almost immediately dumped by the Dance Moms star and days later it was revealed she and 32-year-old Chris had embarked on a romance. This week, JoJo, who identifies as queer, explained that she had been pressured to declare herself a lesbian. And in the wake of this declaration, it has been revealed she has dropped out at performing at an LGBTQ+ event later this month. She had been due to perform at the Back Lot Bash in Chicago as part of their Chicago Pride Sunday party on June 29. But the organization suddenly announced on Saturday morning that this would no longer be the case. The venue wrote on social media: "Due to a scheduling conflict, JoJo Siwa will no longer be performing at Chicago's Back Lot Bash" - without and further explanation. The Mirror has contacted a representative of JoJo for comment. The abrupt cancellation follows news that the star had cancelled a planned tour. She revealed via her official website earlier this month: "I've got some news that breaks my heart to share... my US tour has to be postponed. I promise I'll be back before you know it to perform for all the beautiful people in the US!... Announcements will be coming soon, including some Europe shows!:)" It added: "Thank you so much for your understanding and support. I can't wait to see you all soon! To my Dream Guest VIPs, my team will be reaching out to you individually to plan something special. Refunds will be issued at point of purchase." Her Chicago Pride cancellation comes a day after she gave a candid interview to the Daily Mail in which she opened up about her sexuality journey. She told the publication: "When I came out at 17, I said: 'I'm pansexual, because I don't care [about gender].' But then I kind of boxed myself in and I said: 'I'm a lesbian.' And I think I did that because of pressure." She continued: "'In a weird way, I think [the pressure] came a little bit from inside the [LGBTQ] community at times. From people I know, from partners I've had. "You just get put in this world where you feel like, because you now have said, 'Oh, I'm a lesbian', you have to be a lesbian. And the truth is, sexuality is fluid." In a recent chat with TMZ, JoJo also addressed the ongoing scrutiny that she's been subjected to as fans have dissected her love life. She told the outlet: "The thing is, love is a beautiful rainbow and I think that the LGBTQIA+ community needs to remember that love is love and think the hate from within the community is something I've learned a lot from and I think that a lot of people get to grow from and I'm on of those people. "I think that again I can give you an example of love is love, you can be happy..." Fans could soon see a lot more of JoJo and Chris and their apparent blossoming love - as rumours abound that ITV is preparing to offer them a reality show of their own. A source told The Sun: "It's still in the early stages but ITV really think they'd be amazing TV with their own show. Fans around the world are obsessed with their relationship and there are so many TikTok accounts devoted to their love story."
