BioShock 4: a complete new universe, farewell Rapture and Columbia?

It is now a actuality: sure, BioShock Four is certainly in design and if we don’t but know what identify it is going to formally bear, meager particulars about it are reaching us in the present day by its studio. growth, Cloud Chamber. New firm based underneath the aegis of 2K Games primarily based in Novato, within the United States and in Montreal, in Canada, it’s at the moment recruiting workers for the gestation of this mysterious fourth opus: these job gives are subsequently on the lookout for personnel able to “respiratory life into a brand new fantasy world”, which means that Rapture and Columbia won’t be on the heart of the story. Obviously, this doesn’t point out that the well-known underwater and aerial cities will be unable to make their look, the connections between the totally different universes being an integral a part of the background of BioShock.

Other skilled standards sought: the creation of “visually interesting 3D fashions” from idea artwork or images, “filling within the best particulars and exaggerating them to the purpose of caricature”. A priori, subsequently, Cloud Chamber doesn’t appear to wish to separate from the very specific (and grandiose) creative path of the primary three games. Better but, the builders wish to design FPS gameplay that’s “accessible, satisfying, and expressive” in a “extremely responsive world”.

What teasing, subsequently, and we hope with all our hearts that the agency will achieve making its concepts a actuality. It should be mentioned that the duty of such a franchise is hard, the opuses already launched primarily based on the genius Ken Levine, in the present day left on his personal game in his personal studio. We cross fingers.
