The new Bioshock game in development at Cloud Chamber Games is in difficulties, according to sources of the multiple and anonymous persuasion.

You might not remember it, but in early 2022, Netflix and 2K jointly announced the BioShock movie was back from the dead and in active development. Later that year, we learned that Francis Lawrence (of I Am Legend and The Hunger Games fame) would be directing. Now, that's looking more and more unlikely. Up until recently, Lawrence has been openly chatting about the project and what his hopes and goals for it are, yet we're not convinced he'll be the filmmaker to journey down to Rapture once we look at his increasingly packed schedule. We do hope that notable scribe Michael Green (Logan, Blade

You're not gonna believe this. An apparent screenshot from the Bioshock game that's currently in the works has leaked online, and, assuming it's genuine, it tells us one thing we've all been hoping to learn about the title. That it's a video game. Yep, take a look at the image, which MP1ST claims has been unearthed from the showreel of a visual effects artist working for publisher 2K, and you can see clear as day, Bioshock 4, reportedly codenamed 'Parkside', is probably in line to be one of those doodads we all like to play with a controller, or mouse and keyboard, or a dance pad. In it, the p

We love a bit of 3D printing action when it comes to PC modding, and PC builder Steve Grever has pushed the boat out with this fiery open-air build. Wanting to get away from the standard black box, Steve built this touch-screen-equipped PC in a red Thermaltake P3 chassis, featuring several custom 3D-printed PC parts made with matching red filament. There's also a Big Daddy from BioShock keeping an eye on the flames. Thanks to our rapidly growing PC building Facebook page, we've seen many custom gaming PCs, from mods based on existing case designs to scratch PC builds. You can even submit yours

Following the fresh trailer for it that aired during late January’s State of Play showcase, we’ve now gotten some more info on Judas, the upcoming sci-fi action title from Ghost Story Games, the studio co-founded by BioShock creator Ken Levine. If you’ve been eagerly awaiting any news on the game since it was revealed back in late 2022, you’ll be glad to hear that there are some gameplay impressions this time around. The verdict? Well, it sounds pretty interesting, and also plenty like, well, BioShock. Ghost Story Games invited both IGN and Geoff Keighley to sample 5 to 6 hours of it, and they

The director and creator of the original BioShock calls the studio's canceled co-op survival horror shooter the best game the team never got to make, as he and his slimmed-down studio continue to work on the BioShock-inspired sci-fi FPS Judas.

While we already know that the likes of Far Cry 6, Inscription, and more will be arriving on PlayStation Plus in due course, PS Plus subscribers will be bidding farewell to some stellar games during July. Meaning that unless you cough up some cash or find a different service to play them via, now is your last chance to give these games a go. The games leaving PS Plus can be found under the ‘Last chance to play’ collection on the PlayStation Store, and if they leave as the new batch of games arrives, they’ll likely be going on July 18. The games to be removed from PS Plus are as follows: * Stra

Would you kindly play the BioShock games? The shooter trilogy is among the most influential set of FPS games around, with their gorgeously built worlds, immersive narratives, and frenetic combat that blends punchy weapons with magical abilities. If you've never explored Rapture or Columbia before, you owe it to yourself to check out the BioShock trilogy - and a Steam sale has them so cheap right now that you won't have to break the bank.

The next, currently untitled BioShock game has added a writer on Ghost of Tsushima as its narrative designer. "The dream is real!" wrote Liz Albl earlier this week. "So happy to announce I've joined Cloud Chamber as Narrative Lead on BioShock." Albl already has a number of writing credits under her belt, having written on games like Ghost of Tsushima, Far Cry 5, Watch Dogs: Legion, and more. It's been a while since we've heard anything about this fourth entry in the BioShock series, most of which has just been a lot of he-said, she-said rather than anything actually concrete. Back in 2020 some

The waters are churning around the Netflix film adaptation of Bioshock today, as both the director and scriptwriter have been named in a public Twitter post from the official Netflix account. While it’s still very early days for the project — as you may expect considering the fact they’re only now announcing who is filling important roles on the project — it does mark a major milestone on the next big video game adaption from the massive digital media company. Looking at the roles, we have Francis Lawrence as the director. They’ve previously worked on well known blockbusters such as I Am Legen

Streaming giants Netflix have a BioShock movie to make and, after pointing their golf club at various directors, they’ve selected Francis Lawrence. He’s best known for overseeing three of The Hunger Games movies and is working on the prequel coming out next year, The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes. Netflix have also hired screenwriter Michael Green for the BioShock flick. Green wrote the Kenneth Branagh versions of Agatha Christie’s Murder On The Orient Express and Death On The Nile. I guess that means he’s got experience of period settings. Read more

Netflix has revealed that a BioShock movie is in production, and the streaming service has the adaptation rights to the entire FPS game franchise. That includes BioShock Infinite, meaning Netflix could potentially incorporate the floating city of Columbia and characters like Elizabeth as well as the sunken city of Rapture if it so chooses. This week Netflix announced that it is "partnering to produce a film adaptation of the renowned videogame franchise BioShock" along with publisher 2K/Take-Two Interactive. Official Twitter feed Netflix Geeked posted the reveal alongside the cover art for the
