OtherSide Entertainment has announced that development of System Shock 3 has now begun, and revealed the development team set to work on System Shock 3, including the people behind the original System Shock games, Thief II, and Deus Ex.
At the helm of the team is Warren Spector, who helped create the original System Shock. Spector’s accomplishments are many, having worked on Thief: The Dark Project, Deus Ex, Epic Mickey, as well as a sea of other RPG titles.
Joining Spector is design director Sheldon Pacotti, who worked as lead writer for both Deus Ex and its sequel Invisible War, and Arturo Pulecio, who serves as Art Director. Titles Pulecio has worked on previously include Lord of the Rings Online, Dungeons and Dragons Online, Dark Age of Camelot, Warhammer Online, Wizard 101, and both Epic Mickey games.
They're joined by tech director Jason Hughes, who’s known for such titles as Wing Commander, Star Wars, and again, Disney’s Epic Mickey.
As well as the above, OtherSide will be consulting with developers from the original System Shock teams, including creative director Paul Neurathm, lead designer Tim Stellmach, and art director Nate Wells. Doug Church, director of the original System Shock will step in as a creative consultant.
While details of the game are scarce, OtherSide did reveal the original voice actress for evil AI SHODAN, Terri Brosius, will be back for System Shock 3.
We first heard word of System Shock 3 back last December following a small teaser. A few days later, the team officially announced the project alongside a questionnaire asking players their preference in consoles, and whether they had an interest in VR.
As soon as hear more I'll let you know.
