Originally released in 1994, Nightdive’s System Shock is a remake of the classic shooter, where you fight through an army of mutants and cyborgs to thwart the plans of a rogue AI called Shodan, who is threatening Earth. You must explore Citadel Station to save humanity. This remake offers the original experience with a host of improvements, including improved graphics, updated controls, new sounds and music, a fresh interface, and more.
While 15 story-related achievements are secret, the rest of the list requires us to experience pretty much everything Citadel Station has to offer, including many collectibles. Various achievements are tied to killing enemies in different ways, such as killing enemies with an “Overhead Monitor” — yes, get crushing! While most of the achievements appear to be varied or cumulative, you’ll also need to complete System Shock on the “hardest difficulties” if you want to harvest the full 1,000G, so this could potentially be a tricky one.
