In my book the party creation system is one of the best ever created.
That game SCREAMS for a remake/enhanced edition.

I'd be afraid of letting some dev "upgrade" wizardry 8. Its good enough as is to run on modern computers without help.

I did notice the other day that there is a group remaking Wizardry 1 for modern computers (early access link here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2518960/Wizardry_Proving_Grounds_of_the_Mad_Overlord/)

I missed that one completely (my high school friends and I were more focused on Ultima) and I think a graphics update might make that easier to play.
