New players can jump on board and enjoy the game as much as seasoned fans but that’s not to say that there aren’t any winks for those familiar with the other games. Welcome to the fascinating and somewhat bizarre world of Bioshock Infinite.Īpart from sharing a few similar themes and gaming conceits, Bioshock Infinite has nothing to do with the previous two games. Set in 1912, Irrational Games, gives us a glimpse of a past that never was, or one that might yet be. Bioshock Infinite is something of a departure from the setting of the last two games in the series, swapping the underwater Dystopia of Rapture for the seemingly utopian Columbia, a floating city in the clouds.
