New BioShock Set in a Fictional Antarctic City in the 1960s

N.i.c.e. all 3 bioshock games are amazing.bioshock infinite is a masterpiece.booker DeWitt and Elizabeth is like Michael Jordan and scottie pippen.and beavis and butt head.haha.cant wait for this announcement.word up son

Colin Moriarty wow, that's a name I haven't heard in ages.

Anyway, this Bioshock seems like it's pretty much certain by now. I am expecting a trailer at the Game Awards I think

Super stoked for this.. all biogames are amazing and this one will definitely take the cake

@AFCC Imo, his podcast Sacred Symbols is the very best for PS coverage. I never thought I'd back anyone on Patreon ever but it was very much worth it. Their Xbox podcast Defining Duke with MrMattyPlays and Lord Cognito is solid as well.

Here's to hoping it's what everyone has been waiting for. Bioshock as an IP has so much potential storywise.

I can see an arctic city working really well actually for a Bioshock game. Imagine melting some ice to create some water on the ground where your enemies are and then hitting it with electricity. Consider myself very interested in this!

1960’s Antarctica?? I really hope there is a Nazi-Alien conspiracy angle to this. (I realize that’s a weird sentence, but nonetheless, I’d be stoked…)

You had me at New Bioshock!!!

@dschons Agreed, it’s a super solid group of people over there and generally very welcoming of all people to engage in non-fanboy dripping dribble that plagues most places.

This is great news!
Bio Shock is such an awesome series with BS2 being the best in my book.
I just hope they turn down the little mini-games to take command of drones and doors, etc. Those just got in the way.

So hyped for a new Bioshock! One of the greatest FPS games of all time.

@AFCC hes also behind Lillymo games, which have made some decent titles. I played and platinumed habroxia 2 earlier this year. Pretty decent space schmup

You guys never learn don’t you? Every year TGA gets hyped by “leaks” and all we get is disappointment.

@get2sammyb Fictional? Wait, are you saying those other Bioshock places were real?

Excellent. Have loved every single Bioshock game so certainly looking forward to another.

Pumped! I played through the trilogy recently for the very first time. Amazing games, had an absolute blast. Played them on Xbox but I’ll probably get this on PS5 if it has some cool DualSense features!

Please let it be nothing like Infinite. Of all three games this was the biggest disappointment of the lot. 1 and 2 were fantastic, but 3 wasn't a Bioshock game it just had the title tagged to it.

Well that's my space theory out the window

I'm quite hyped for the game awards. I'm hoping we get a window into the first half of this generation. although I'm quite sure I will leave a bit let down. I'm not sure its possible to meet the expectations we build in our heads at this point.

@dschons Agreed! Love Sacred Symbols.

Apparently it won't be at The Game Awards and it is more likely to be at E3 next year. That is what they said on Sacred Symbols anyway.

@AFCC His Sacred Symbols podcast is fantastic, and he quite often cites and praises pushsquare. I've been a patron of Last Stand Media for almost a year now, well worth it for Colin's unfiltered opinions and knowledge alone

@AFCC I come to Push Square because Colin cites it pretty much weekly, and he wouldn't be doing that unless it was a good quality source of information.

I'd imagine there are a fair few Colin loyalists here.

Let's hope the gunplay is massively improved in this one. For me it's the one thing that keeps the series from true greatness, it nails almost everything else.

@TheKramer89 Aliens under the ice was my first thought.

I can’t wait bioshock is still my favorite series of all time. If it’s nearly as good as the other 3 is will be happy. Unfortunately, probably won’t be out till 2023 at the earliest ☹️

@KidBoruto Top tip is use a power then shoot, otherwise enemy are much harder to head shot. The first two games are brilliant and still look good, you really should play them as they are absolute classics. Infinite didn't quite do it for me as I preferred the darker setting of the first two, hopefully the next one will go back to a similar dark environment.

@KidBoruto I thought the games were pretty straightforward and forgiving when you played with Vita-Chambers. Save the little sisters, hack all vending machines etc. For combat choose what fits you the best. Many of the powers are useful and versatile. Exploring will make things easier (finding weapon/power upgrades).

Don’t skip the story-oriented DLCs, they’re actually very good.

Tried to get into Bioshock multiple times but it never clicked with me. Not sure why.

In a world full of darkness and despair...Be a new Bioshock game.

I imagine it’s probably true. In last week’s episode he asked for someone to reach out & tell him. I imagine he probably said it in todays show, but that’s 4 hours long & is going to take me a week to get through😅

I read that as Biosock and immediately thought of an odious little stinker with a life of its own

Man, that NVIDIA game leak is looking more and more legit every day.

Father Moriarty is making the rounds

@WolfyTn agreed!! The second one was my favorite, it improved on the first greatly. The third was wild, so wild it almost felt like a different IP, but was still fun. I enjoyed the Americana themes and the final boss fight more than the first two.

I'm so happy every news outlet spoiled this section of the podcast before I even got a chance to listen to it. Thank you gaming journalism

Been meaning to play more of Bioshock myself. My only hold off are complaints that the gameplay in some parts is said to be poor compared to the world building.

It’s a shame Moriarty is such an unlikeable prick, because he’s probably one of the most informed PlayStation fans with a podcast out there. Haven’t listened to him since Kinda Funny, and don’t plan on it.
