Today, 2K Games announced the founding of Cloud Chamber who will be developing the next BioShock game. Cloud Chamber is a wholly owned game development studio under the Company’s publishing label.
After all the rumors circulating a return for this franchise, it’s actually happening.
“A collective of storytellers eager to push the frontlines of interactive entertainment by making unique, entertaining and thoughtful experiences that engage the world, Cloud Chamber will build its team at two locations: 2K’s San Francisco Bay Area headquarters in Novato, California., as well as in Montréal, Québec, which marks the first-ever Canadian office for a 2K studio. “
On March 26, 2020 it will mark 7 years since we last saw a new BioShock game launch and that was Infinite which was a favorite by many. It’s a great day for the fans who are a fan of this franchise. Here is what the President of 2K had to say on the great news.
“As we continue growing our product portfolio, we remain inspired by opportunities to invest further in our valuable IP, great people and their collective, long-term potential,” said David Ismailer, President of 2K. “BioShock is one of the most beloved, critically praised and highest-rated franchises of the last console generation*. We can’t wait to see where its powerful narrative and iconic, first-person shooter gameplay head in the future with our new studio team at Cloud Chamber leading the charge.”
It won’t be until a few years where we will see this game on shelves and fans playing the next iteration of the acclaimed BioShock series.
