Check out the full notes below, though the patch is currently “pending” with no release date yet. This is in addition to crash fixes, balance changes, and more.

Using the Surgery Machine will now autosave regardless of difficulty, and it will no longer get stuck in a permanently busy state. In the meantime, PC players can look forward to the first major patch, which plans to fix softlocks, improve the enemy AI in Realspace and Cyberspace, and add a head-bob option in the accessibility settings. In its 100th Kickstarter post, the developer confirmed, “Console versions are running smoothly” but still require a “few rounds of QA support before we move to certification.” No ETA at this point, but they could release before the year is out.

Something that we really value is making sure that the player has a choice in how they tackle the game, so we're trying to make sure however they choose to play it, there are ways they can work in their own playstyle and have fun playing the game however they like.' There is not a huge amount of variation in how you play when it's built that way. 'We're trying to make the combat a bit more meaningful, rather than just trying to blast the enemies as quickly as you can. 'Certain weapons were hugely preferred over everything else, and a lot of enemies you'd end up killing incredibly quickly,' said Mansell.

That remains the goal, but Mansell explained that balancing the enemies and weapons was an important change.

When Nightdive rebooted its remake back in 2018, its goal was to refocus on creating a game faithful to the original. Cyberspace in System Shock (Image credit: Nightdive Studio)
