The third BioShock game could once again return to Rapture as a setting, 2K Marin's creative director, Jordan Thomas has said.
Speaking in an interview with OXM, the BioShock 2 boss said that the underwater city is "one of the characters we don't want to let go.
"I think Rapture remains fertile for as much expansion as a team sees in it," he explained, when quizzed on Rapture's future in the series.
"I absolutely believe that there might be future games set in Rapture in whatever time period, but I would also say that I think that the Bioshock brand is big enough that it could evolve."

wow the bioshock 2 idea is barely in its infancy and theyre talking about bioshock 3? this is nothing but a complete and utter violation of an amazing and artistic imagination. its shocking, have some f**king dignity.
He may as well have said "GTAV" may have some violence in it, or "Tomb Raider (whatever-number-we're-on) may have Lara Croft in it".
Surely Bioshock IS about Rapture?? That's what I thought was so great about the first one and what I'm looking forward to in the new one. Take away Rapture and you just have another FPS

The Bioshock 2 idea is complete. If it was in its infancy it wouldn't be coming out in a few months time.
They better evolve the franchise beyond Rapture. #3 being in the same place will surely kill the franchise. They need some bold new ideas. A world where the greatest minds on Earth created an underwater city surely has more to tell....
