2K Confirms More ‘BioShock’ is On the Way
The fate of the BioShock franchise has been hanging in the air, held aloft by promises that it would continue, since Irrational Games, the studio that created it, closed its doors nearly two years ago.
What’s left of Irrational, including series creator Ken Levine, have moved on to a “highly creative and innovative project” that we don’t currently know anything about. Where BioShock goes, or rather, where it takes us next, is entirely up to its new owners at 2K Marin in California.
“The franchise is in the hands of 2K,” Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick told GameSpot last week.
“They’ll make announcements in due time about any upcoming releases. But BioShock is unquestionably a permanent franchise for our company and one that we do believe in.”
They’ve also confirmed that BioShock will not become an annual franchise, like Assassin’s Creed and Call of Duty. That’s good news.
It’s not a lot to go on, but 2K did handle BioShock 2, and that was a strong game with some exceptional DLC. Seriously, if you haven’t played Minerva’s Den, I highly recommend it. And while we wait for actual news to surface, you could always burn some time by checking out this Little Sister body paint video, a gruesome fan-made Splicer mask, some Dead Space/BioShock mash-up, or this incredibly impressive impressive fan remake.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
