"Remember, it is my will that guided you here. It is my will that gave you your cybernetic implants, the only beauty in that meat you call a body. If you value that meat... you will do as I tell you."


The cult classic sci-fi horror FPS-RPG has returned.


You awake from the cold chill of your cryo-tube to discover cybernetic implants grafted to your flesh and the crew of the starship Von Braun slaughtered. The infected roam the halls, their screams and moans beckoning you to join them as the rogue artificial intelligence known as SHODAN taunts and ridicules your feeble attempt to unravel the horrifying mystery of the derelict starship Von Braun.

Your Training Has Prepared You For This.

  • Choose from 3 specialized branches of the military to utilize unique skills, weaponry, and paranormal psionic powers.
  • Upgrade and enhance your skills to improve hacking, weapon proficiency, and psionic abilities.
  • Discover cryptic audio logs, encounter ghostly apparitions and conduct research to give you the advantage in combat and unlock exotic weapons and items.
  • Play with up to three friends in multiplayer co-op (co-op works in Windows only)

System Shock™ 2 is a genre defining experience that established innovative game-play mechanics that are a staple of the FPS and RPG genre today. It has gone on to inspire some of the greatest titles of our generation with games including Deus Ex® and Bioshock®
Discover how a haunting story, innovative game-play and a terrifying atmosphere has made System Shock™ 2 one of the greatest games of all time.

The Mac OS and Linux versions of System Shock 2 use a technology called "WINE" to function on those operating systems.

Platonic ideal

The finest game of its genre, at least in my experience, and the template for everything done right in games that followed. System Shock 2 (SS2) takes everything that System Shock did and improves upon. (The only exception being cyberspace, whose omission is either a negative or positive depending on your opinion of it in the first game). There is of course combat, as well as psionic abilities. This is enhanced by the addition of research, resource gathering, and weapon maintenance (which is another potential negative to some players). The plot and subplots are relayed to the player via communications, recordings, and "ghost" sightings, all of which immerse you in the events. Extra touches, such as the way enemies will talk to themselves, also add to the experience. Ostensibly an FPS, SS2 is deeper and smarter than that label first implies. Virtually everything that made the console game Bioshock such a hit happened here first, in a game that remains superbly playable to this day. By all means get this game if you are even remotely interested. I recommend you download the patches that upgrade the graphics and character models, as they do a fine job modernising the look of the game. And there are a number of fan missions of high quality that keep the fun going once you finish the game proper.

The game that spawned Bioshock

This was the first true open sci fi shooter/RPG i ever enjoyed. Bleak, moody and hard as hell. A joy to play, searching every nook and cranny for upgrades to make the game easier. Perhaps one of the first survival horrors. Excellent
