Rumor: The entire System Shock 3 team is no longer working on the game

Although little has been said so far, System Shock 3,the official sequel to the cult series of the 90s to which titles like BioShock were strongly inspired and directed by the original producer of the series Warren Spector,is one of the most interesting titles in development at the moment, but maybe we should say "was".

According to strong rumours, in fact, it seems that the entire development team is no longer working on the project. The news comes from a former employee of Otherside Entertainment, who says that the project was far behind with the development and that, as far as he knows, all the employees of the studio no longer work there.

The post, which took place anonymously, was confirmed by a former community manager of the studio, and via LinkedIn updates it was possible to verify that writer, director, director of design and lead programmer of the game no longer work in Otherside.

Although there have been no official announcements (a comment is expected from Otherside and Spector himself), it seems that the project is now firm and it is not known if the development will resume in any way. Bad news for those waiting for the return of this historical series.

The news has nothing to do with System Shock,a remake of the first title of the series by Nightdive Studios, and whose development seems to be progressing smoothly.
