Take-Two will not leave franchise

Take-Two Interactive earlier said that the sales of BioShock 2 were “slower than expected,” but they also mentioned further that the game was profitable.

Take-Two leadership later has given clarification that the team does not intend to leave the franchise behind.

Well, 2K Marin is now working on X-Com and this is something unsure about the future of BioShock.

Strauss Zelnick, chairman of Take-Two, said: “2K Marin is working on X-Com. As it relates to BioShock, we think BioShock is still one of the most important franchises in the history. We intend to support the franchise. It [another BioShock game] doesn’t have to be at 2K Marin.”

After the success of the original BioShock, it was declared by Take-Two the intentions to develop many sequels to the game.

Well, right now Take-Two is focussing on offering more additional downloadable content for the BioShock 2. The company is also promising of the extensions of the single-player world. However, there has been no announcements yet made on this.
