You better believe that the BioShock “brand” is here to stay. The sequel to 2007’s critically acclaimed game is not even out yet, but that hasn’t stopped 2K Marin‘s creative director Jordan Thomas talking about games beyond the next chapter, possibly set in Rapture, possibly set beyond.
“I think Rapture remains fertile for as much expansion as a team sees in it,” he states. “I absolutely believe that there might be future games set in Rapture in whatever time period, but I would also say that I think that the Bioshock brand is big enough that it could evolve.”
The setting of Rapture is described by Thomas as being “one of the characters we don’t want to let go,” which sounds very much like we’ll be seeing a lot more of the submerged city in future games. Perhaps that BioShock MMO that 2K once frighteningly suggested.
I can’t wait for BioShock Big Daddy Bubble Dance Party on the Wii.
