Highlights

System Shock 2 Features

Players choose from three distinct military careers at the start, each granting different initial skills and abilities in combat, hacking, or psionics.
Character progression uses cybermodules to upgrade attributes like strength, agility, and psi, as well as skills such as weapon proficiency and electronic expertise.
Weapons can be modified with found upgrades to alter damage, fire rate, ammo type, or add effects like piercing or explosive rounds.
Psionic abilities allow players to learn powers such as telekinesis, pyrokinetics, and mind control through investment in psi skills and sufficient psi hypos.
Hacking mechanics enable players to override security systems, unlock doors, disable traps, and access computers using electronic tools and skill checks.
The game features a nonlinear deck structure where players revisit areas after acquiring new abilities or keys to access previously sealed-off sections.
Audio logs and crew recordings scattered throughout the ship provide narrative context, character backstories, and clues about the Many and SHODAN's motives.
Environmental hazards include radiation zones, vacuum areas requiring suit integrity, and toxic atmospheres that demand specific gear or modifications to survive.
