BioShock 4 could be much more open than the previous chapters

It has been known for quite some time BioShock 4 is reality and, despite the time that has passed since the official confirmation by 2K Games, news about the expected fourth installment of the first-person shooter series was spread almost with a dropper. The cloud of mystery that has characterized the title so far has thinned out in the last few hours thanks to the study founded for the development of the game, that is Cloud Chamber. In fact, according to what our colleagues from GamesRadar +, the page of job offers of the software house presents some information that could be attributable to the structure of the levels of the game.

In particular, it would seem that the firm is looking for human resources already experienced in the realization of role-playing games, capable of fulfilling the role of Senior Voice Designer. The ideal software house candidate must also be able to help design the dialogues of the game, which could be multiple choice and able to change the judgment that the NPCs will have of us. like what happens in games like Fallout . Continuing to analyze the job offer, it stands out how the game is conceived as a sort of "sandbox world", which includes interactive worlds, systems of growth and progression of the player, balance and economy.

This description of the game environment could therefore suggest that, in the development of BioShock 4, Cloud Chamber decided to create a decidedly more open level design compared to the previous chapters, less linear and more based on the exploration of the surrounding world. Furthermore, it is the intention of the software house to include a large number of individuals, governed by artificial intelligence, within this environment. It is currently known that BioShock 4 will come out on PlayStation 5 e Xbox Series X / S and will exploit theUnreal Enginewhile maintaining the classic first person view. We just have to wait for further rumors and news, preferably official, from 2K Games and Cloud Chamber.
