The article should be renamed

Because of the remake that's gonna come out next year, this article should be renamed "System Shock(1994 game)" or something CheckSuruWayo (talk) 03:43, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn’t have an article yet so I don’t believe it’s necessary at this time.--69.157.252.96 (talk) 22:29, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

System Shock (upcoming video game) does exist. Whether it would be more notable than this game is questionable, though. IceWelder [✉] 22:35, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ah I see the issue here. I was looking at a template on the article for the original game and didn’t realize that it wad specifically for the original developer Looking Glass Studios and assumed that since there was no mention of the new System Shock that the article hasn’t been created yet.--69.157.252.96 (talk) 01:14, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Helpful RockPaperShotgun interview

With the release of the updated version, RockPaperShotgun has an oral history interview which has some fascinating tidbits from members of the team -- nothing that outright contradicts things in the article, but things that can definitely add a bit more detail and color.
