2K, the publisher behind many long-running series, not least of which are BioShock and Borderlands, says it has a big reveal in store for one of its most beloved franchises at June’sSummer Game Fest.

This comes from the official Summer Game Fest Twitter account,which revealed: “2K plans to reveal the next iteration in one of 2K’s biggest and most beloved franchises at Summer Game Fest on Friday, June 7.”

Outside of Borderlands and BioShock, 2K is the publisher behind the turn-based strategy series Civilization and XCOM, as well as the action-adventure series Mafia. 2K also publishes the sports series NBA 2K, PGA Tour 2K, and WWE 2K. However, the words “biggest and most beloved” to me most likely refer to BioShock or Borderlands. Maybe Civ or XCOM, but almost certainly not any of the sports games, no disrespect to those franchises intended.

While BioShock 4 and Borderlands 4 are definitely possibilities, there’s a reasonable argument to me made for a new Mafia, Civilization, or XCOM game as well. Only time - and Geoff Keighley - will tell.

Meanwhile Judas, the new game from the BioShock creator, looks more like BioShock than ever.
