It’s not much, but a leaked image from the fourth BioShock game has made its way online, courtesy of gaming website MP1ST. The screenshot in question (which you can see below via Imgur) is actually from a 2K Visual Effects Artist’s 2021 demo reel, with the image showing the UI and weapon.
Given that the image is from 2021, things are expectedly going to be changed once production ramps up, which looks to be happening pretty soon. The image also carries the code name “Parkside”, which is what was reported back in 2021 as the code name for this BioShock entry.
Obviously, not much can be gleaned from the screenshot, especially with this obviously being an early build. However, judging from the icons in the lower left, it’s safe to say that you’ll once again have your abilities, be they Plasmids or Vigor. That, and a trusty shotgun (so far) that has the ability to bounce its shots.
Obviously, neither 2K or Cloud Chamber have commented on the image.
Based on the long-standing rumours, this new BioShock entry is possibly going to be open world, with the setting a 1960s Antarctic city called Borealis. Again, things may change.
One of the big changes is the fact that Ken Levine, who was the mastermind behind the original game, will not be part of this new entry. Instead, Levine is now part of Ghost Story Games, which is currently working on their new BioShock-like game, Judas.
