Who is Elizabeth?! Take 2 and Irrational Games are really pulling all the stops out with this one and if the above clip doesn’t wet your appetitite for Plasmids, well then clearly you’re a better person than I am! Bioshock Infinite is the third game in the series but the story predates the nightmarish adventures down below in Rapture!

With the United States emerging as a world power, the floating City of Columbia is a mighty symbol of American ideals, launched with great fanfare to the cheers of a captivated public. But what begins as an endeavour of hope soon turns to disaster, as the city disappears into the clouds, its whereabouts unknown. The greatest accomplishment in American history has vanished without a trace.

The player assumes the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, sent to Columbia to rescue Elizabeth, a young woman imprisoned there since childhood. He will develop a relationship with Elizabeth, augmenting his abilities with hers so the pair may escape from a city that is literally falling from the sky. DeWitt will learn to fight foes in high-speed Sky-Line battles, engage in combat both indoors and amongst the clouds, and harness the power of dozens of new weapons and abilities.

Bioshock Infinite is due for release March 26th!
