The Swedish company Starbreeze Studios is currently located in . In an attempt to cut costs, she . Since then, the development studio and its creative director Warren Spector have been looking for someone to help bring the sci-fi sequel to life.
Speaking to VideoGamesChronicle, Spector said that discussions to sell the rights to publish System Shock 3 are going smoothly. “We are talking with many partners, and we have a lot of interested ones. No deal yet, but fortunately OtherSide is rich enough that we fund ourselves and can continue to do so for quite some time. Let's see what happens," he said.
While Spector says OtherSide Entertainment has the money, self-publishing System Shock 3 isn't very appealing to the studio. “The reality is that OtherSide is a company of developers who want to make games,” Spector said.

[…] I think it will be a big distraction. To do this, we will have to hire staff, because now we have no experience. I hope we don't do this. If we do that, we'll be in trouble."
System Shock 3 doesn't have a release date yet.
