It was a hint at what Nightdive Studios was working on for the enhanced version of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the team, they had the opportunity to play with the idea of creating a standalone VR version of the game while in the process of reverse-engineering the missing libraries for the System Shock 2 game. They then decided to bring a VR expert to look at the code and give them a brief insight on what kind of things they could do to make this idea come to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the blueprint of System Shock 2, the developers found a solid foundation of the game and began fleshing out a full VR version of the game. Nightdive Studio then confirmed that System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition will be fully playable in VR along with its multiplayer mode.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowergaming.com\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/system-shock-2-vr.jpg\" alt=\"system shock 2 vr\" class=\"wp-image-19463\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Nightdive Studios CEO Stephen Kick also confirmed that the VR mode isn&#8217;t just an extra feature but a fully-fleshed out one. And as of now, the development team is working with an outline to create a remarkable VR experience for fans built from the ground up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The developers also stated that the immersive potential of VR became one of the main reasons why they decided to pursue a dedicated mode for System Shock 2: Enhanced Edition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The System Shock 2 Enhanced Edition will be released for Microsoft Windows <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberpowerpc.com\/category\/gaming-pcs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gaming pc<\/a>, as well as Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
