Bioshock 4 Development Still Moving Ahead, Confirms 2K

Expert Verified By

2K Is Still Cooking Bioshock 4!

Story Highlights
  • Bioshock 4 was initially announced by 2K Games all the way back in 2019.
  • Despite the lack of updates, this game is still in development.
  • It is expected to be set in Borealis, an Antarctic city from the 1960s.

The next Bioshock game has been a long time coming. First announced in 2019, Bioshock 4 is being led by Cloud Chamber under 2K Games’ publishing.

Nearly five years after the initial announcement, details on this project remain sparse. However, with Bioshock Infinite celebrating its 11th anniversary recently, 2K has provided a subtle update, seemingly confirming that development is still in progress.

Why it matters: The Bioshock series was a major step forward for video game narratives when it first debuted, so fans are excited for the fourth entry.

2K recently posted a tweet to honor Bioshock Infinite’s 11th anniversary.

Following the publisher’s silence, many were quick to ask about the next game. While it is not unusual for teams to remain quiet about their projects after an announcement, various games that were announced after Bioshock 4 have already been released.

Therefore, fans were concerned about the IP’s future. Fortunately, 2K replied with an emoji, signaling that Cloud Chamber is still cooking. Fans quickly understood what this meant, breathing a sigh of relief.

Still, leaks regarding the game have been anything but encouraging. The team appears to have struggled to nail a proper direction for the game, leading to various changes mid-development.

Overall, Bioshock 4 may be stuck in what some call development hell.

The Original Bioshock Remains A High Bar For Gaming Narratives

Cloud Chamber seems to be venturing into a 1960s Antarctic city for Bioshock 4 as it prepares for the inevitable comparisons to the original game from 16 years ago. If the rumors are to be believed, the game is unlikely to arrive before 2028.

However, fans can look forward to Judas till then. Recent trailers and previews show similar themes and gameplay, with many dubbing it Bioshock in space due to Ken Levine’s influence.
