Expert Verified By

There Were Fears It Might Be Cancelled Due To Leadership Issues!

Story Highlight
  • Take-Two’s latest report reveals that the next BioShock game is still in development.
  • There were fears that it might be cancelled due to recent layoffs at the studio.
  • Bioshock 1 Remake was also cancelled earlier this year due to franchise turmoil.

The BioShock franchise was once huge, but for the last few years has fallen from grace. It has seen all sorts of issues from leadership problems to game delays and more, and the fans were scared that it might’ve cost the new game in development. 

However, Take-Two in its latest report has confirmed that the next BioShock is still in development despite the studio turmoil. Earlier reports claimed that it had been delayed or might’ve even been cancelled. 

Why it matters: BioShock has seen a very shaky last few years, but when the rumors of the next game in the franchise started emerging, long-term fans were once again hopeful. 

Bioshock 4 in development
Take-Two’s quarterly report confirms that the next BioShock is still in development.

Thankfully, Take-Two’s latest Quarterly Report confirms that BioShock 4 is indeed still in active development, amidst fear that it has been cancelled. The fear was generated by the BioShock 1 remake getting cancelled earlier this year. 

In August 2025, Cloud Chamber was hit with layoffs that even led to the Diablo boss taking over as the head of the studio. We don’t really know how the morale is at the studio right now, but it’s good to find out this new development.

There were concerns that it might be cancelled due to studio issues.

For now, we can safely guess that BioShock 4 is quite a few years away. Take-Two hasn’t revealed much about it except that it’ll be based on Unreal Engine 5, but let’s wait and watch out for something from the studio.
