  • Bioshock 2 (**Multiplayer will not be included), alongside:
    • Minerva’s Den: A self-contained BioShock story, presenting a side of Rapture you’ve never seen before. Use expanded combat abilities with the experimental Ion Laser and chaotic Gravity Well Plasmid, unique to Minerva’s Den, as you face off against the Lancer Big Daddy.

  • Bioshock Infinite, alongside:
    • Burial at Sea – Episode 1 & 2 Add-On Packs: This major two-part DLC pack completes the BioShock trilogy by taking the series back to where it all began. Return to Rapture just before the events of the original BioShock!
    • Clash in the Clouds Add-On Pack: Face 60 waves of challenges across four additional maps for leaderboard glory and unlock areas to explore in The Columbian Archaeological Society hub museum.
    • Columbia’s Finest Pack: Combines the contents of the Industrial Revolution Pack and the Upgrade Pack and includes 500 Silver Eagles, five Lock Picks, six unique Gear items, and two weapon upgrades: Comstock’s China Broom Shotgun and Comstock’s Eagle Eye Sniper Rifle.

Moreover, those that own BioshockBioshock 2, and the Bioshock 2 add-on Minerva’s Den on Steam will will receive the upgraded versions of the titles for free. 2K added that BioShock Infinite will not be included in the offer as the game “already meets current-gen console standards and runs smoothly on high visual settings.”now in time for the remastered editions this fall.
