Take-Two has just announced the sequel for BioShock. Not many details regarding BioShock 2 were released but Take-Two executives did acknowledge the rumors about Irrational Games team (recently changed their name to 2k Boston) will not be the creators of the sequel. They have asked 2k Marin to create the sequel however 2k Boston's Ken Levine will be there to help in the creation of BioShock 2.
BioShock 2 isn't set to be released until October 2009 at the earliest. Gears of War announced maybe 7 months early, so why in the world is BioShock 2 telling us nearly 20 months in advance? Recently EA has shown a lot of interest in acquiring Take-Two, and with the announcement of BioShock 2 they are only increasing the value of their company.
If this game is even minorly as successful as it's original the game will have no problems selling a few million copies. This game so far, is the biggest excitement for the 2009 gaming calender. Look forward to many trailers to be released over the upcoming months.
