      I think the original devs left after the second one. The third was a new crew. I could be misremembering too, though.

      Edit: I was mistaken as everyone has pointed out. It makes a lot more sense that way.

        Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite were by Irrational Games (2K Boston). Bioshock 2 was by 2K Marin.

        Ken Levine shut down the studio after Infinite as they disliked the stress and scale of development - missing the days of small development teams.

        That was back in 2014. Levine’s new studio, set up immediately after the closure of Irrational, has yet to release a game but supposedly their first project, Judas, is not too far from completion (it was meant to be out this year in March but, so far, there’s no news).

        If that‘s the case then I guess I shouldn‘t be as sceptic cause I liked Infinite quite a bit

      yes because they got laid off. and by original devs, I mean the devs originally working on bioshock 4, not the previous titles - they are long long gone.
