OtherSide Entertainment has officially announced that it is working on System Shock 3. Last week hackers cracked OtherSide’s teaser website (www.othersidetease.com) ,  revealing information that hinted at a possible sequel and now the developers have come clean with plans for a long-awaited sequel.

SHODAN, the AI from the original System Shock series is back and mocked hackers via the site.

Fans will be pleased to hear that many of the original members of the System Shock team are back, including lead developer, Paul Neurath. He’s joined by senior artist on System Shock 2, Nate Wells, with original System Shock concept artist, Robb Waters also returning. In addition, the original voice of SHODAN is back, with Terri Brosius, who more recently brought her talent to Dishonored.

Several years ago, OtherSide secured the exclusive IP rights to all future versions of System Shock. The developer recently struck a partnership deal with Night Dive Studios, who owns the System Shock trademark, allowing OtherSide to use the System Shock name for the sequel.

No news of a possible release date or which platforms to expect it on, but fans can register to the teaser site for news.
