What does it have in common with the Shock games (namely System Shock 2), you ask? Here’s a list: While the “Prey” name is a literal fit for this game, it’s deceptive for anyone expecting something like Prey.Ī more appropriate name, added by a mod which is linked below. Hence why I personally refer to it as “Preyshock” (someone please come up with a better name in the comments, the original working title “Typhon” was certainly better). Arkane’s Prey is a slow paced, methodical survival horror FPS game focused on exploration and world interaction. That’s it, no story similarities and no real concrete gameplay similarities.

The original Prey was a fast paced, action packed, bizarre but awesome Sci-Fi FPS on id Tech 4 engine. I suppose that makes Arkane’s game a reboot, but the two games could hardly be any more different. We previously reviewed the original Prey from Human Head Studios.

With the upcoming release of the System Shock remake (be sure to play the demo), we decided to finally review Arkane Studios’ Prey released in 2017, as it is a System Shock series spiritual successor.
