System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster just announced its final release date. For players on Nintendo Switch and elsewhere, the game launches on June 26, 2025.

We only just found out that System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster would be released on Nintendo Switch last month. The 1999 classic sci-fi horror action will now be returning with extra bells and whistles very soon.

For those that need a refresher, read the following overview:

System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster brings the acclaimed PC game to consoles for the first time. Nightdive Studios has rebuilt System Shock 2 for modern platforms using its proprietary KEX Engine, offering players the definitive System Shock 2 experience with improved visuals, enhanced gameplay, improved performance, cross-play co-op multiplayer, mod support, and more. Every aspect of the game has been refined to provide the best possible experience for new fans as well as veterans.

The original System Shock 2 revolutionized storytelling, atmosphere, and gameplay in the medium, inspiring a generation of titles to follow. It completely reshaped the way gaming audiences viewed the potential for storytelling in first-person games and went on to win over a dozen awards and “Game of The Year” recognitions.

Set 42 years after the events of the first System Shock, antagonist SHODAN and her army of merciless mutants infest the starship Von Braun. Players embody a soldier who awakes from cryo-sleep with cybernetic implants grafted to his flesh. As he sets out to unravel the horrifying mystery of the derelict starship, he’ll need to hone his upgradable skills and utilize powerful weapons and paranormal psionic abilities to survive the monstrous creations of SHODAN — and endure her narcissistic god complex.
