Bioshock publisher 2K’s community manager Elizabeth Tobey has announced that the Bioshock downloadable content “will at least include extra plasmids for players to mess around with, a way to disable Vita-Chambers for hardcore play, and bug fixes. The patches will also address the game’s field-of-vision perspective, following an intense bout of controversy over the way BioShock handles its widescreen display.”
The content will be available next week for both the Xbox 360 (via Xbox Live) and PC (via Cultofrapture) versions, reports Shacknews and Joystiq is saying the content will be free!
This is EXCELLENT news. I beat the game (to my shame, on Easy) last week and have restarted it on Hard without using the Vita-Chambers to get the Bulletproof achievement. It’s like it’s a different game. The anxiety over my lack of health and ammo blurs into the tension of the game itself. Much more nailbiting.
I’m thrilled I won’t have to do the manual load each time to avoid using the Vita-Chambers.
Although surely now, with new plasmids to buy, there shan’t be enough Little Sisters around to allow you to buy them all!
It gets even better, it’s out today!
