The Game Druid

2K Games announced that it has partnered with Universal Studios to develop a feature film based on its smash-hit shooter from 2007, BioShock.

“We are excited that 2K Games’ vision for BioShock will be carried forward in a new medium,” said Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of Take-Two.

“BioShock has been hailed as one of the most highly cinematic and richly plotted titles in interactive entertainment, making it extremely well-suited to film.

In partnering with Universal and Gore Verbinski, we have assembled a team that respects the uniqueness of BioShock and will translate it into a powerful movie experience.”

A specific release date has not yet been confirmed, but we’ll keep you posted.
