Every Mutant In System Shock Remake, Ranked

Mutated Cyborg

This one is a mutant and a robot at the same time. They look awful, but don’t be fooled by how they look. Mutated Cyborgs are very slow and very big. That makes it easy for you to hit the target from far away.

Cyborgs that have been mutated have a claw that shoots energy beams and a visor that shoots green missiles. The strikes only work when they are close. If you stay back and fight it from far away, it will be one of the easiest System Shock enemies to beat.

Avian Mutant

SHODAN got into the systems of the Citadel Station and spread bugs everywhere. One of them made snakes change into things that looked like birds. The Avian Mutant looks like a type of bird or lizard from the past that could fly.

In System Shock, Avian Mutants hit you with only their beak and claws. Their speed is the only thing that makes them dangerous. If you avoid their close-range attacks, you can kill them with weaker weapons. Just don’t be scared off by how scary they look. It’s easy to kill them.

Humanoid Mutant

Mutants that look like people might be the most disturbing enemy in System Shock. They were just regular people who worked on Citadel Station. And if you’re a person playing Happy Wheels, you really feel bad for them. They tend to wander around freely in the Medical and Research levels, where you’ll often find them.

They won’t attack until you get close to them or make them aware that you’re there. Most of the time, they are found in big groups, which makes them stronger. Their only attack is a swipe of the arm, but if they all attack at once, you might not make it. Weapons with a lot of power can quickly take out a group.

Zero-Grav Mutant

The Zero-Grav Mutant looks like a bug that can float around. Most of the time, the super-mutated blobs are in the Reactor stage. In the beginning of System Shock, they hit you from afar a lot, making them hard to deal with.

Zero-Grav Mutants are in the middle of the pack in terms of how dangerous they are and how they look in general. Don’t think too little of them, though. System Shock has a lot of enemies that come at you in huge groups. If they are with other types of enemies, focus on them first and think about using a Gas Grenade to thin out the group.

Virus Mutant

Virus Mutants are the same as Humanoid Mutants, but they are three times stronger. They are bigger, stronger, and can take a lot more damage than the normal version. You don’t want to get too close to this System Shock enemy.

It’s hard to knock out a Virus Mutant, so you’ll almost always have to try to avoid an attack from one. Watch out for infectious projectiles and close-range hits that do a lot of damage.Get an assault rifle so you can compete with them.

Alpha-Strain Mutant

In the System Shock Remake, they are now called Alpha-Strain Mutants instead of Inviso-Mutants. They are annoying to fight. They are small monsters that look like a cross between a stingray and a Zero-Grav mutant. These groups of viruses in the air attack hard. Only a small number of them can get you to the death screen.

Alpha-Strain Mutants are not to be taken lightly. They can hurt you with poisonous weapons or burn you with their tentacles. They can see you from much farther away than other enemies can, and they won’t stop attacking you until you kill them. Your best bet is to stay behind cover and only come out to attack them in short bursts.

Plant Mutant

They are exactly what their name says they are. These enemies in System Shock are mutated plants. They got legs and can get to you pretty quickly. Be careful of their sharp thorns and spiky pods, which they can throw from a long way away.

Before they land, the pods can be shot down, but the Plant Mutants usually use them to confuse people. As you shoot their seed pods, they will rush at you with strikes that are hard to control. The only good thing about fighting a Plant Mutant is that they are easy to stun. This lets you do damage without them being able to fight back for a short time.

Gorilla-Tiger

In System Shock, the Gorilla-Tiger is one of the most scary enemies you’ll face. The project that made it was meant to combine the power of a tiger with the strength of a gorilla. This enemy won’t show up as often as others, but if you do, get ready for a tough fight.

This huge animal will attack you with its claw and kill you in no time. If you want to survive a battle with a Gorilla-Tiger, you will have to throw everything you have at it. So dangerous are these monstrosities?
