‘BioShock’ is Looking Great on Unreal Engine 4
As we all patiently wait to see what 2K has in store for the BioShock franchise now that its primary developer Irrational Games has closed, YouTuber and indie game developer noodlespagoodle has gone and made Andrew Ryan proud. Actually, all he did was move assets from the original BioShock into Unreal Engine 4, so that wasn’t terribly difficult, but the results are still remarkable.
I hope that 2K is able to continue pushing this series in new and exciting directions, but part of me sees this and aches for a remake of the first game.
As impressive as this is, it’s not quite as gorgeous as BioShock remade in CryEngine 3.

New ‘GRAFT’ Story Trailer Delves Into Tormented Body Horror [Watch]
Developer Harebrained Scheme gave those eager to check out their upcoming survival horror RPG GRAFT some much-welcomed meat in the form of a new story trailer. The trailer not only touches on the body horror aspect of the game, but also the relationship you share with someone you care about, and the potential consequences you face on your journey through structure known as The Arc.
Currently in development for release on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, GRAFT sees you attempting to escape the aforementioned rotting space station. The Arc is a continent-sized station that was once filled with biomechanically enhanced citizens, all working toward some greater purpose lost to time. Now the station is in ruins, its citizens now unrecognizable. And you have no idea how you got here.
In order to escape, you must tear pieces from your enemies to transform yourself into something new—something capable of surviving the horrors that prowl around you. Every Graft brings with it some piece of its previous owner’s identity, changing more than just your physical body.
However, you are not the only survivor in the desolation. Ancient feral experiments, strange abominations, and ruthless agents of a mad AI stalk you. You must use the tools in your growing arsenal as you fight through the horrors in a visceral new twist on classic survival horror combat. Know when to fight, and manage your resources carefully in order to escape alive.
