Fourth ‘BioShock’ Game “Ramping Up” Production, According to Developer

Published

on

The wait for the fourth BioShock game has been agonizingly slow, but it appears that things are about to pick up. Per Gamesradar, 2K Cloud Chamber senior cinematic designer Jeff Spoonhower recently took to LinkedIn to announce that production on the BioShock project was ramping up, with “many positions open across a variety of disciplines” available.

The last that we heard regarding this long-awaited fourth entry in the series was last year, where a Cloud Chamber Senior Concept Artist had posted to their ArtStation that the fourth BioShock game would be coming in 2028. Even before that, the rumour going around was that the game would be released in 2022 (which it obviously never did).

We still don’t know a heck of a lot about this next BioShock game, codenamed “Parkside”, which has had rumours flying around for years, from it being open world and taking place in a 1960s Antarctic city called Borealis. Updates have been quiet since then, with fears that the game was in development hell.

Admittedly, this is still not much to go on, but the news that Cloud Chamber is looking to hire people for the project indicates that things are moving forward. Whether we see a teaser or official announcement later this year remains to be seen, but you never know.

‘Resident Evil’ Cast Reunite With Rebecca Chambers’ Actress [Watch]

Published

on

Director Andrew Saullo has just dropped the second Resident Evil cast reunion. And this time, Charlie KraslavskyGreg Smith and Eric Pirius (who played Chris Redfield, Barry Burton and Albert Wesker, respectively) are joined by the surprise addition of Rebecca Chambers’ actress, known as Linda! The quartet were joined by Saullo, as well as Residence of Evil founder JJ Trulock to discuss (what else?) their experience with Resident Evil, as well as some behind-the-scenes info on the shoot for the cutscenes.

Regarding the shoot for the cutscenes, Linda said that the experience “left a really big impact” on her at the time. “It was a big day. It was a wild shoot and it was very different than anything else that I had been doing in Japan at the time when I was modelling.” Still, Linda did remember her fellow actors, though she admitted that they all “looked a little bit different” at the time, including herself. “I remember for the shoot, I actually had blonde hair, and they spray painted my hair that morning so I would look more like Rebecca.”

As for her knowledge of Resident Evil, Linda admitted that she’s still learning about the series and her character. “I didn’t know a lot about the job, or that anyone was looking for [me] up until probably about four years ago, where someone reached out to me and they found me. But even then, I didn’t understand the magnitude of the entire situation. Only now I’m realizing like wow, there’s maybe someone out there that you know it’s like ‘Wow, that’s Rebecca Chambers!’. So it’s new to me, and I’m kind of just going with it.”

The interview (which you can check out below) also includes a special announcement of a four-part fan-made web series, which will be directed by Andrew Saullo (who also directed the fan-made short The Keeper’s Diary, in case you missed it). All four of the actors will be reprising their roles in the web series. It will not be an official Resident Evil series (for copyright reasons). Crowdfunding for the project will be launched “soon”.
