BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea - Episode Two

Gameplay

As usual, BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea - Episode Two for PC, X360 and PS3 is a first person perspective game. However, the gameplay mechanics have changed. While BioShock: Infinite and the first expansion were all about fighting large groups of enemies in fast-paced firefights, the second episode focuses on stealth approach. Elisabeth is physically fragile, so instead of standing up to stronger enemies, she sneaks behind their backs and attacks them by surprise. On top of that, there never is a lot of ammo to be found, so the game seems to be turning towards the survival-horror genre. An additional feature of the game is the optional 1998 playing mode, in which the player cannot kill anyone during the entire campaign (reminiscent of the release date of Thief: The Dark Project).

Technology

The action of BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea - Episode Two for PC, X360 and PS3 takes place mainly in Rapture, a well-known underwater city from BioShock and BioShock 2. The creators did not use any existing graphical models - all the locations and models of enemies were recreated. Thus, the underwater metropolis looks substantially better than in the previous installments.
