BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter like you’ve never
seen. Set in 1912, players assume the role of former Pinkerton
agent Booker DeWitt, sent to the flying city of Columbia on a
rescue mission. His target? Elizabeth, imprisoned since
childhood. During their daring escape, Booker and Elizabeth form
a powerful bond -- one that lets Booker augment his own abilities
with her world-altering control over the environment. Together,
they fight from high-speed Sky-Lines, in the streets and houses
of Columbia, on giant zeppelins, and in the clouds, all while
learning to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and
abilities, and immersing players in a story that is not only
steeped in profound thrills and surprises, but also invests its
characters with deep emotional bonds.

Features
--------
* Immersive Story: From BioShock creators Irrational Games comes
an all-new chapter of the BioShock story. The year is 1912 and
you’re Booker DeWitt, a former Pinkerton agent with his life on
the line. His mission: rescue the mysterious Elizabeth from the
sky-city Columbia or never leave it alive. But why is everyone so
afraid of a young girl?
* A City in the Sky: The BioShock franchise leaves the depths of
the ocean to soar among the clouds in the flying city of
Columbia. A technological marvel, it’s a beautiful and vibrant
world that has a very dark secret – a secret that not only
threatens the existence of Columbia but could change Booker
forever.
* Sky-Lines: Using his Sky-Hook, Booker is able to dish out
severe hands-on punishment and traverse the city’s hook points
and Sky-Lines, turning them into weaponized roller coasters.
* Tears: Your traveling companion Elizabeth is more than just a
pretty face – she has the power to open Tears in time and space.
Booker can use these Tears to shape the battlefield and turn the
tide in combat by pulling cover, weapons, turrets, and other
resources out of thin air.
* Vigors: What would a BioShock game be without a variety of
devastating powers surging through your body to be unleashed
against all that se you? From throwing explosive fireballs
and lightning to unleashing a murder of crows upon your victims,
Vigors let you tailor your play style for maximum effect.
* New Combat Experience: With deadly weapons in one hand and
powerful Vigors in the other, you will fight your way through the
floating city of Columbia to freedom. All the while you’ll be
capturing zeppelins to destroy all onboard, riding Sky-Lines to
launch devastating aerial attacks, and opening world-changing
Tears to gain the advantage. You’ve never seen combat like this.
Weapons, Tears, Vigors, Sky-Lines – every system in the game can
be combined for devastating effect.
* 1999 Mode: The player can unlock a secret version of the game
called “1999 Mode” that gives experienced players a taste of the
kind of design and balance that hardcore gamers enjoyed back in
the 20th century.
