We already knew that Judas, a first-person sci-fi action game from BioShock creator Ken Levine, was in development. And today, we got a new trailer, containing what I would call some serious BioShock vibes.
As one of a handful of announcements from today's January 2024 State of Play, Ghost Story Games showed off a new look. We didn't get a release date, but the footage says it's "currently in development for PS5." It's also slated to release on PC and Xbox Series X/S.
Ghost Story Games' parent company, Take-Two Interactive, announced last February that the game planned to be released before the end of March 2025.
Judas was reported to be in "development hell" before its official unveiling. Ghost Story Games shared a first true look at Judas a few months after that report during the 2022 Game Awards.
"We founded Ghost Story Games to build upon the legacy of System Shock 2, BioShock, and BioShock Infinite," Levine wrote in a press release following the game's official unveiling. "With Judas, we've created an entirely new world and set of characters while exploring different approaches to single-player, narrative first-person shooters."
The official press release reads:
The “Who is Judas” trailer offers a deeper look at the game’s setting aboard the Mayflower, a spacefaring city whose citizens are trained to tear each other apart for even the most minor infractions, and where machines control every aspect of business, art, and government. You, as Judas, are the driver of every event in a mysterious story with a new cast of characters to get to know – and to change – in a world where every decision you make affects how the story unfolds.
It goes on to say that the "leaders tried to turn you into something you're not: a model citizen" and that you "sparked a devastating revolution to tears it all down."
