After "winding down" Irrational Games in 2014, co-founder Ken Levine has finally announced the name of his new studio: Ghost Story.
Ghost Story is a ‘spiritual successor’ of sorts to Irrational, the studio behind System Shock 2, Freedom Force, BioShock and Bioshock Infinite, made up of 12 former employees. A freshly launched website explains that the title was chosen because "ghost stories are immersive, exciting, and steeped in community. The name reminds us of our mission."
A welcome post elaborates on this mission further. "Ghost Story was founded by twelve former Irrational Games developers and our mission is simple: to create immersive, story-driven games for people who love games that ask something of them. While we believe our new games will have strong appeal to fans of BioShock, our new focus allows us to craft experiences where the gameplay is as challenging as the stories."
