For the enemy in the Original Game, see Virus Mutant.

The Virus Mutant is an enemy encountered in System Shock (Remake). It features some slight appearance changes from the original.

Overview[]

Virus Mutants are former members of the crew that were mutant with the V-5 mutagen virus, that would later evolve into the many.

Strategy[]

They are only encountered in certain areas and when killed give off bio-contamination. When encountered, many times than not, it will be a group of 3-4 enemies at once that have both ranged and melee attacks. It is best to try to shoot them with a ranged weapon while actively moving in-between attacks to avoid their range attacks. Another option would be to hind behind a corner and wait for them to approach using the Laser Rapier, but be mindful of the AoE zone left behind when killed.

Cut Content[]

The following was planned to be in the game during development but was cut or changed prior to release.

  • Different body and head design
