When unknown aliens steal the artifact, privateer Captain Flint of the spaceship Cortez and his crew follow their ship through the jumpgate, which leaves them stranded in an unknown star system.
To find their way back, they have to find the artifact and the aliens.
You take control of Flint.
Aboard the Cortez, you can receive messages from your crew members, scan the planets in the system for possible mission sites and select suitable weapons and equipment for the next mission.
Three different craft are available for the missions: a fighter, a hovercraft and a stationary turret used to give cover to your crew mates when they are on a mission.
After completed missions, the wreckage from destroyed aliens is analyzed and used to produce better weapons and equipment.
The storyline will take you through six different systems, each with a variety of missions to complete.
Live-action cut-scenes continue the story.
About 3DO
The 3DO Interactive Multiplayer (1993/1994) was an ambitious, expensive CD-based console licensed to multiple manufacturers rather than built by a single company — a business model that ultimately contributed to its commercial failure. Low overall sales and a short commercial life mean 3DO games were produced in modest numbers, making complete copies a specialist retro collecting niche today.
Gamevaro tracks Shock Wave 2: Beyond the Gate for 3DO with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Shock Wave 2: Beyond the Gate to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DO release dates back to 1995.

No market sales have been tracked yet for Shock Wave 2: Beyond the Gate — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
