The Next BioShock Should Be Set In Space

There's always a lighthouse... always a man... always a space station...

[Skuletor]

I want one in a volcano

[Dwarrior]

A secret volcano LAIR?

[Skuletor]

Yeah, like the kind a supervillain would create

[lptmg]

a Bioshock in space? so.... System Shock?

[-Foxtrot]

Well if it's set on the Moon or Mars then at least it separates it's self from a Space Station like System Shock, not to mention if they have any "tears" in the game (unknown since we don't know if Elizabeth being gone closed them all for good) they could have some great System Shock Easter Eggs

[SkatterBrain]

didnt some of the tears show like present day? didnt the ending of infinite say its all the same story told in multiple ways?

[Endyo]

System Shock is cyber punk. BioShock is retrofuturistic. It would probably be more like Outer Worlds.

[Sciurus_vulgaris]

Bioshock is more Steampunk Sci-Fantasy; the series is also alternate history.

[Endyo]

@Sciurus_vulgaris
Steampunk IS retrofuturisitc... just like Dieselpunk... Atompunk... etc. Alternate history and anachronism would also differentiate it.

[Godmars290]

A 70s or 60s style space station/moon base.

[isarai]

So prey and/or system shock basically?

[Nacho_Z]

That's probably my choice. I wouldn't focus too much on the zero gravity and outdoor sections though I'd be more interested in seeing their vision of how a new colony would turn out given time. Maybe it could have an Elon Musk type character behind it all whose ego eventually runs out of control, totally unlike real life.

[camel_toad]

Someone should give him a big red button that says "DO NOT PUSH".

[CrimsonWing69]

Nawww man, it should be In Bikini Bottom!

[Tross]

I’m sure there are mods for the first game or two that make that a reality, at least as a background aesthetic. If not, someone should make that.

[Tross]

I’m open to whatever they do, so long as it’s set in a location that’s as creative as its predecessors.

[Dwarrior]

I'm not holding my breath. The reason 1 and Infinite were what they were was Ken Levine. Without him, I just can't see the new game being as good. Levine was a control freak, and pain to work for. But he is a great dev.

[Baza]

Space, really? No it should be remade underwater. That’s bioshock at its core. You’re reaching way too hard.

[Smokehouse]

I disagree. Bioshock 1 was the best one and rapture was the best city though. I do think the earth and it’s different biomes are at the core of bioshocks cities. Having it in space just seems wrong to me.

[Rambokind]

Agreed, that'd be fun

[Smokehouse]

I don’t really like the space idea but I would buy it anyway lol. I just want more bioshock. I’d much rather an earths core type of deal. We’ve done air and sea, it just seems natural. Space is better for something like system shock which I’m also hyped to try. I never got around to playing the originals.

[rainslacker]

I think I'd like a deep underground setting. Space is overdone IMO. Save a space station or off world city for another sequel.

[Smokehouse]

It’s not weird enough lol. We have people on an international space station right now which is pretty nuts. There isn’t a city defying gravity or on the sea floor though.

The deep underground would be dope. Maybe a focus on darkness and scary cavern shit. When the lights go out pure darkness. With the new lighting technology it would be sick. Bioshock 1 art design and story make it my favorite game ever but I’d like this game to be scary and nothing scares me more than confined spaces lol. F**k caves.

[carcarias]

Nah, we just had Prey. System Shock Remasters and System Shock 3 are on their way too.

[BadElf]

No.

[smashman98]

I want one in a Vacuum Cleaner

[SCW1982]

Someone has got to let this dude know about System Shock 1 and 2

[unjust75]

Underground!!! I’m calling it

[zodiac909]

Everyone is excited for a new Bioshock, and Im just here wishing Dead Space would make a return.

[Traingamez]

It should totally be on the moon!

Especially because The moon is the only place people went to 50 years ago and haven't stopped talking about how awesome it was but no one has ever gone back

Buzzed Alltime should be the name of the main protagonist

[343_Guilty_Spark]

So Prey?

[SkatterBrain]

i wanted something like that creepy perfect town in fallouts simulation , like a perfect 50s town existing in a creepy messed up world trapped in a bubble trying to ignore the problems outside , themed lands like westworld

[Knightofelemia]

I wouldn't mind if the new Bioshock took place in the center of the Earth

[gold_drake]

Kanto Region, for sure.
