A “top-secret” studio is working on the next BioShock game, and it’s currently being developed under the codename Parkside.

The fact a new BioShock game is currently in development should come as a shock to absolutely no one.

According to a Kotaku report, former employees of Mafia 3 studio Hangar 13 have joined a top-secret studio to work on the next BioShock, which goes by the codename Parkside.

After a round of layoffs at Hangar 13 back in February, many employees moved on or joined the team working on Parkside. The remaining team members of Hangar 13 were kept in the dark on what the project entailed, until word slipped out it was a new BioShock title.

“If anyone from Hangar 13 tried to strike up a conversation with them, they’d say, ‘Oh, we can’t really talk about it,’” a source close to the studio told Kotaku. “It was all very tight-lipped.”

In numerous financial briefings over the last fiscal year, Take-Two has stated 2K Games has a “highly anticipated new title” from one of its major franchises in the works.
