Every Leak and Rumor about BioShock 4 (As of July 2023)
Sure, it’s been four years since the initial announcement, and we’re still waiting for gameplay footage, cinematic trailers, or any official news. But fear not, there have been plenty of exciting leaks to keep us on the edge of our seats.
One noteworthy leak came from Colin Moriarty, an ex-GameTopic staff member, on his podcast Sacred Symbols. Moriarty spilled the beans in December 2021, revealing that BioShock 4 was targeting a 2022 release and would transport players to the chilling Antarctic city of Borealis, circa the 1960s.

With the hunger for more BioShock knowledge growing, Twitter user OopsLeaks couldn’t resist dropping a bombshell in September 2022. Alongside a captivating promo image, OopsLeaks shared a treasure trove of tantalizing details about the upcoming game. Dubbed BioShock Isolation, the sequel takes place in a fictional Antarctic city. However, due to unforeseen circumstances within the studio, the full reveal was delayed. OopsLeaks assured fans that quality is the top priority for Cloud Chamber and 2K, and they won’t rush the release until it’s a masterpiece.
According to OopsLeaks, BioShock Isolation will amaze players with a Deathloop-inspired art style and an open-world format. Brace yourself for a gripping main storyline intertwined with thrilling side quests. Water is set to take center stage, constantly shifting and shaping the gameplay experience. The game features two main areas, Borealis and Aurora, with the latter being a Soviet city constructed using forced labor—a predicament our brave protagonist finds themselves entangled in.
But hold on, folks, because there’s another twist in this tale. OopsLeaks returned to Twitter in May with shocking news—BioShock 4 was caught in development hell. Apparently, the game underwent its fourth reboot during the summer of 2022. While keeping the original setting intact, the entire story was rewritten from scratch. Structural issues and mismanagement threw a wrench in the works, leaving BioShock 4 teetering on the edge of “limbos.” If we don’t hear any news this summer, it’s safe to say the release may be pushed back until fiscal year 2025.
The wait for BioShock 4 continues, but we’re confident that Cloud Chamber and 2K will deliver an unforgettable experience. Get ready to dive back into the immersive universe of BioShock!
