About

A first-person fight to the death in the depths of space!

You Gave Shodan Control. Now Take It Back.

You were caught hacking into the files of TriOptimum Corporation. Executive Edward Diego offered a deal: remove the ethical restrictions from Citadel Station’s artificial intelligence, and receive your freedom and an experimental neural implant in return.

Six months later, you awaken to the consequences.

SHODAN controls Citadel Station. The crew are dead, mutated, or remade as cyborgs. Security machines patrol the corridors. Earth is in her sights. Relive the original System Shock from within Citadel Station as the influential first-person science-fiction classic comes to VR.

Citadel Station Surrounds You

Move through medical facilities, research laboratories, maintenance tunnels, executive suites, biological groves, and the machinery beneath them. Every camera is an eye. Every locked system is another expression of SHODAN’s control.

Explore each deck, uncover hidden routes, and return to earlier areas as new equipment, codes, and access privileges reveal another way forward. Citadel is more than a backdrop. It is a vast machine that must be understood before it can be reclaimed.

Break Her Control System by System

Stopping SHODAN requires more than firepower. Search the station for crew recordings, emails, technical procedures, weapons, ammunition, hardware, and dermal patches. Destroy surveillance cameras and computer nodes to reduce security. Solve circuitry and access puzzles. Manipulate systems across multiple decks to interrupt SHODAN’s escalating plans for Earth.

Enter Cyberspace

Connect through your neural interface and breach Citadel’s digital systems in six degrees of movement. Battle hostile programs, recover software, bypass security, and alter the physical station from within its network.

Survive What She Created

Fight robots, mutants, and cyborgs with an arsenal of melee weapons, firearms, energy weapons, and explosives. Manage health, ammunition, energy, inventory, and installed hardware as you adapt to the threats waiting throughout the station.

Shodan is Everywhere

She watches through the cameras. She speaks through the systems. Her machines enforce her will, and the remains of Citadel’s crew demonstrate what she intends for humanity.

You gave SHODAN her freedom. Enter her domain in VR and correct your mistake before Earth becomes her next experiment.
