We surmised last week that Bioshock creator Ken Levine's new game is going to feature an open world and now it has been confirmed by the man himself. Talking on NPR's On Point show - reported by Gamespot - Levine said that the game will be smaller and focus on player experience and replayability.
"The thing we're working on is sort of a small-scale open-world game," he said. "And the reason ours is an open world game is because if you want to give the player the agency to drive the experience, that really fights against the linear nature of the games we made before like BioShock and BioShock Infinite. What it really means though is, 'How do you make your content so it feels like the quality of the content you've made in games before but reacts to the players' agency and then allows the player to do something in one playthrough and something very different in another playthrough?'"
