New BioShock game from Cloud Chamber

A new BioShock game is officially in the works by Cloud Chamber. Cloud Chamber is the newest, wholly owned game development studio under the company’s publishing label. Teams will be established in two locations: Novato, Calif. and Montréal, Québec. They’ll be comprised of a collective of storytellers, eager to push the frontlines of interactive entertainment by making unique, entertaining and thoughtful experiences to engage the world. The Montréal studio also marks the first ever Canadian office for a 2K studio. The aforementioned next entry to the BioShock franchise will be in development for the next several years.

What’s next after *BioShock* *Infinite*?

David Ismailer, President of 2K commented:

“As we continue growing our product portfolio, we remain inspired by opportunities to invest further in our valuable IP, great people and their collective, long-term potential.”

“BioShock is one of the most beloved, critically praised and highest-rated franchises of the last console generation. We can’t wait to see where its powerful narrative and iconic, first-person shooter gameplay head in the future with our new studio team at Cloud Chamber leading the charge.”

Kelley Gilmore, a 22-year industry veteran with over 40 games shipped under her belt, she’ll be Cloud Chamber’s Global Studio Head, the first woman in 2K history to lead a development studio. Her wealth of experience transcends executive production, marketing direction and public relations management. That includes nearly two decades of service to another of 2K’s wholly owned studios, Firaxis Games, having worked on franchises like Sid Meier’s Civilization and XCOM. She’ll be based in Novato.

“We founded Cloud Chamber to create yet-to-be-discovered worlds – and their stories within – that push the boundaries of what is possible in the video game medium.”

“Our team believes in the beauty and strength of diversity, in both the makeup of the studio and the nature of its thinking. We are a deeply experienced group of game makers, including many responsible for BioShock’s principal creation, advancement and longstanding notoriety, and honored to be part of the 2K family as stewards of this iconic franchise.”

She in turn has tapped Ken Schachter to be Cloud Chamber’s Studio Manager in Montréal. He too has extensive experience in development, production, technology and creative roles. He’ll be embassador for both the stuio and 2K to establish a significant company presence in Montréal. Schachter prior served as General Manager for Zynga in Toronto, as well as founded independent game developer and publisher Trapdoor. Notable positions with companies like Gameloft, Autodesk and more are on his resumé.

Cloud Chamber’s decision to open a new office in Montréal was supported by the Gouvernement du Québec and Montréal International. The studio will be joining the company’s family of wholly owned development teams, a list of which includes:

Visual Concepts
Firaxis Games
Hangar 13
Cat Daddy Games
2K Silicon Valley
