Creator of BioShock Confirmed Working on System Shock 3

Look at you, hacker: a pathetic creature of meat and bone.

Huge news for sci-fi horror fans came today with the appearance of a teaser site for System Shock 3. Although the initial teaser page was just a countdown, a second page was found revealing that OtherSide Entertainment—who are also working on a spiritual successor to the classic Ultima Underworld series—is working on a third entry in the beloved System Shock franchise.

OtherSide Entertainment’s staff are no strangers to the System Shock series. OtherSide founder Paul Neurath and Ken Levine both worked on System Shock 2, with Levine crediting his work on System Shock as being a direct influence on both BioShock and BioShock Infinite.

Though there are few details available other than the fact the game is being made, I’m glad to see that System Shock 3 is in good hands. If you’ve never had the opportunity to check out the world of System Shock, check out the trailer below.
