A brief teaser trailer for the upcoming game System Shock 3 was just released by the developer OtherSide Entertainment. The trailer was shown off at the Game Developers Conference by Warren Spector as a pre-alpha glimpse into the world of System Shock 3.
Spector discussed at the conference about how the Unity technology was utilized to help them create world full of robots. Mutants and dead enemies. The whole impression of fear, horror and dread is something that players will get to experience in the gameplay.
Take a look at the teaser trailer below:
We want players to feel alone in a strange and dangerous place, a station on the outskirts of our solar system. It’s a world which was once alive with activity but is now controlled by a rogue AI named SHODAN. Living on this station, or unliving on this station, are only robots, mutants and the dead
The third title is a long awaited game in the series, and the trailer shows the return of the game’s most memorable villain SHODAN. She is the murderous AI who has taken control of the doomed space station.
We’ve got a bunch of gameplay systems in mind that we’re absolutely not going to talk about today. But from a visual standpoint, we needed a setting that was noir-like, dominated by deep, dark, problematic, disturbing shadows, and punctuated by areas of intense, focused light.
System Shock 3’s announcement was long time coming as the game was last title, System Shock 2 was released back in 1999. The series started with System Shock that was released for PC back in 1994, where it was notable for featuring first person shooter mechanics, with RPG elements and atmospheric, sci-fi setting.
Earlier this year, Starbreeze had sold the rights back to the developer OtherSide Entertainment. Previously Starbreeze acquired the publishing rights for the game back in 2017, and had invested in at least $12 million towards the development of the game.
