Nightdive Studios has announced that SiN Reloaded is in development for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.
“Set in a near-future dystopian world, SiN: Reloaded puts you in control of security consultant Colonel John R. Blade as you take on the seductively evil Doctor Elexis Sinclaire,” the developer outlines in a press release.
“When Elexis, CEO of SinTEK Industries, begins injecting the streets with a DNA-altering drug, it’s time to reassess the laws of morality by facing off against Elexis’ unholy army of genetically-engineered mutants.”
The developer has worked to remaster the 1998 cult classic first-person shooter, delivering enhanced visuals with improved textures, modernised control schemes and the Wages of SiN extra mission pack. The additional content will see you confront a diabolical mafia boss with a new army of dangerous freaks.
The original game is remembered “for pushing the Quake II engine to its limits,” and “lauded for introducing a groundbreaking amount of interactivity in every level.”
You can use DOS-style code to hack into computer terminals, wreak havoc with elevators and security cameras, and use vehicles like a forklift, patrol boat or helicopter to traverse each level. There are consequences to your choice of action, which create branching paths as the game progresses.
The developer has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Play the original SiN and the SiN: Wages of Sin mission pack, optimised using the KEX Engine
- Beautifully remastered graphics with HD textures and models (up to) 4K resolution at 144 FPS, anti-aliasing, and upgraded 2D screens and menu art
- Overhauled control schemes and modernised UI for gamepads and M&K
- Improved maps throughout the game
- Swap between remastered visuals and the original SiN Gold version
- Brand-new achievements
- Higher resolution Zak Belika tracks mixed/engineered by Chris Mock
- A vault filled with exclusive, behind-the-scenes material
SiN Reloaded will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch worldwide in 2026.
