The SS2 Community Patch is also highly recommended, and if you want to play around with multiple mods this handy guide (written by the creator of SS2Tool) will sort you out. SS2Tool also comes with the SHTUP (Shock Texture Upgrade Project) mod and the NewDark fan patch, both of which completely revamp the original game for modern systems.

Once you’ve fired up GOG Galaxy and logged into your account, scroll down on the store page and you’ll see the following: GOG Galaxy’s one of the better clients as far as digital marketplaces go, especially with the greater management for backups and its hassle-free offline functionality. You’ll have to download the site’s GOG Galaxy middleware to get Looking Glass’s FPS thriller, although that’s not such a raw deal. But the best giveaway is one involving System Shock 2: because it’s free. The giveaway is part of GOG’s latest sale, and there are plenty of decent bargains on the front page if you’re curious.
