Following a turbulent period of layoffs and leading the company in a change of direction,” BioShock developer Irrational Games has posted a few new job openings, sparking positive growth since the studio’s period of layoffs after the release of BioShock Infinite in 2013.
Over on the studio’s Careers page, Irrational has posted two new job openings, one of which for an IT Manager, followed by another opening for a Senior Programmer.
Ken Levine is one of the greatest and most famous writers and game designers in video game industry. His BioShock series deal with a lot of political subjects and he has interesting opinions about his surroundings. In his recent interview with an Iranian media, he talks about politics, philosophy and his way of creating games.
I respect the political writing as well. He's everywhere. Here's another interview at something called rezzed and mentions the new game and studio. https://youtu.be/uHkZQBilEX...
New game starts around the 15 minute mark. His next game basically a beefed up version of the nemesis system in shadows of Mordor. A dynamic narrative built into the nemesis system which he calls "limited and rudimentary". Not as an insult but to describe how ambitious the system is. Hopefully these pop ups means an e3 presence.
With Frank Fontaine, Irrational Games made a villain that wouldn't have the same impact in any other medium.
Today, Irrational Games announced it has changed its name to Ghost Story Games.
Well Kevin Levine is back. Hopefully if this does well and he gets his rest he might want to come back to Bioshock someday. I'd love another Bioshock set in another altered multiverse
Although with this game being a Sci Fi FPS it could be Bioshock with a City on the Moon
Unreal Engine 3? Are they gonna make games for the iOS?
Wait I'm confused. Didn't they shut down? I could've sworn Ken Levine said he was starting a new smaller team.
