NEW YORK, Mar 01, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- 2K Games announced today that BioShock(R) Infinite will be available in
North America on October 16, 2012 on the Xbox 360(R) video game and entertainment system from Microsoft,
PlayStation(R)3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC. The title will be available internationally on October 19, 2012.
Developed by Irrational Games, BioShock Infinite won more than 75 editorial awards at E3 in 2011, including the Game Critics
Awards' Best of Show. The title has been named one of the most anticipated games of 2012 by more than 50 media outlets,
including WIRED, USA Today, TIME, GameSpot, and GameTrailers. The BioShock franchise is one of the interactive entertainment
industry's most successful and critically acclaimed series, which has sold-in over 9 million units worldwide.
"After BioShock, we had a vision for a follow up that dwarfed the original in scope and ambition," said Ken Levine (@iglevine),
Creative Director of Irrational Games (@irrationalgames). "BioShock Infinite has been our sole focus for the last four years, and
we can't wait for fans to get their hands on it."
BioShock Infinite puts players in the role of Booker DeWitt, a hard-bitten former Pinkerton agent, together with the revolutionary
AI companion, Elizabeth. The two struggle to escape the sky-city of Columbia, in a 1912 America that might have been. Armed
with an arsenal of new weapons and abilities, they face menacing enemies, in unique expansive environments. Classic BioShock
gameplay joins innovations such as aerial combat on high-speed Sky-Lines in the service of an immersive storyline -- an Irrational
Games signature.
BioShock Infinite is not yet rated by the ESRB.

:o - That's a bit of a shake-up...
Not to call Uncharted "Generic", but the art/pose feels more in line with a "blockbuster popcorn action" game than what I'd expect from Irrational...
"When Rod Fergusson came on board we looked at the game. He was there for about a month and he said, 'look, I've been looking at the schedule and looking at the game and frankly you could really benefit from another three or four more weeks for polish and bug fixing.'
"We talked about it. I knew I'd probably get beat up in the press a little bit about it. But at the end of the day, if it's going to make a better game we're going to do it.
"So the new date is March 26. That's my bad news."
Work on the game is now down to final polish and bugfixing. In order to give the team a few more weeks of this polish, the release date of BioShock Infinite is March 26th.
We know that this is going to ruffle some feathers. But we're willing to take the heat to make sure that BioShock Infinite is 100% the game our fans deserve.

Agreed.
Irrational Games today announced that production of downloadable content has recently begun for BioShock Infinite and revealed details of the BioShock Infinite Season Pass. Three all-new add-on packs will provide hours of additional gameplay and continue the player’s journey in the sky-city of Columbia with new stories, characters, abilities and weapons.
Those who purchase the BioShock Infinite Season Pass will also receive the Early Bird Special Pack at no extra cost. This bonus pack contains four pieces of exclusive gear, a Machine Gun Damage Upgrade, a Pistol Damage Upgrade, a gold skin for both weapons and five Infusion bottles that allow players to increase their health, their shield durability or their ability to use Vigors by increasing the quantity of Salts they can carry.
The BioShock Infinite Season Pass will be available on March 26, 2013 when the game is planned to launch, and provide nearly $30.00 of add-on content for $19.99 (PlayStation®Network, Windows® PC) or 1,600 Microsoft Points (Xbox LIVE® online entertainment network) – a savings of more than 30%. The Season Pass will include all three add-on packs, and can be pre-ordered today through www.preordernow.com or at a participating retailer.
BTW - For anyone who's looking for a good pre-order deal, this is still going on:
[1600 MS Points Free For Pre-Order @ MS Store (http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/pd/BioShock-Infinite-for-Xbox-360/productID.245856700/categoryID.59682300/list.true?ClickID=c7pflkkn7ak7nxvzwxfl4nkpsk7flnf7izzk)]
The first is Clash in the Clouds, a new, combat-focused DLC pack that's available starting today for $5. And, sometime in the future, players will get Burial at Sea, a hardboiled adventure set in 1958 where you'll play as both Booker and Elizabeth in Rapture.
Clash In The Clouds
Designed by Infinite's lead level designer Forrest Dowling, Clash in the Clouds puts players against 15 waves of enemies in four all-new maps all across Columbia. Leaderboards will chart how you do against other friends playing these battles and players will earn new achievements and trophies.
Burial At Sea
The two-part Burial at Sea will drop the lead characters of Infinite into the iconic city from the first BioShock game, in the middle of what looked like a noir-inflected mystery. Levine promised that you'll be seeing some familiar faces from the underwater city's tortured history.
Levine said that making Elizabeth a playable character was another example of giving fans what they wanted. Burial at Sea will cost $15 each for both parts, and the BioShock Infinite Season Pass is available for $19.99 (1600 Microsoft Points).
Take-Two Interactive chairman and CEO Strauss Zelnick has revealed that BioShock Infinite has sold more than 4 million units since its release last March. This comes hot on the heels of the first-person shooter's new DLC and the announcement of an impending return to more nostalgic, sub-aquatic pastures.
"BioShock Infinite is North America's best-selling multiplatform release so far this year, according to NPD," Zelnick said during an investor conference call following the release of Take-Two's financial results for the first quarter of its fiscal 2014. "The title has crossed the 4 million units selling mark, and we expect it to become the top-selling release in the BioShock franchise."
