Take-Two Interactive, the owner of the BioShock franchise, is looking forward to more sequels in the series even if the actual developer, Irrational Games, is soon shutting down.

Last year's BioShock Infinite amazed millions of gamers worldwide but it seems that its creator, Ken Levine, wants to pursue other project and has decided alongside Take-Two to shut down the whole of Irrational Games.

In a new statement for Polygon, the publisher has confirmed that it's looking forward to making the next big BioShock game.

"BioShock is one of our most beloved and critically acclaimed franchises, and we are indebted to Ken and the talented team at Irrational Games for their contributions to the series with BioShock and BioShock Infinite; the latter being one of the most decorated games of 2013.

"The BioShock universe remains a rich creative canvas for many untold stories, and we look forward to exploring the next BioShock experience."

Take-Two tasked in the past its 2K Marin studio to create BioShock 2, but that title didn't end up living up to the pedigree of the series.
