2K STUDIO REPORTEDLY DEVELOPING NEW BIOSHOCK
http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/04/...0d09530c0006ae
A studio within 2K is allegedly working on a new BioShock game, according to a new report.
Kotaku's Jason Schreier's report largely focuses on the making of Mafia 3 and the impact it had on developer Hangar 13, but in his reporting, Schreier discovered an unannounced project in the works at a neighboring, secret studio. Codenamed Parkside, this project is said to be the next BioShock, according to the report, and it sounds like it's not only top-secret but also quite early in development.
"If anyone from Hangar 13 tried to strike up a conversation with [those at this studio], they'd say, 'Oh, we can't really talk about it," one source told Kotaku. "It was all very tight-lipped."
Another source said the studio is keeping the Parkside team small for now in order to avoid the the overstaffing that sometimes encumbers larger studios. Kotaku reports that many Hangar 13 employees tried to climb aboard Parkside in the wake of the studio's decline, but most were unable to find a slot.
"The issue is that Parkside's not ready for lots of people," one source said. "They’re trying to be really smart about figuring out what the core thing is."

Minerva’s Den is perfect extension to B2. If you loved that game you have to love MD. Took me awhile to get my electricity plasmid. That is my main plasmid. Hardly use others except fire to melt some snowmelts and get stuff. Still souped up in this one and I’m so much smarter as I play series. The hacking in 2 they made easier and so worth while. Hacking security cameras and bots on your side really does help. Hope I get my grenade launcher soon. Can’t live without heat seekers or frag grenades...
