The source of rumors for quite some time now, 2K Games has officially confirmed that BioShock is in development for the PlayStation 3 at their 2K Marin studios.

Released last year on the Xbox 360 and Windows PC, it was only a matter of time until it appeared on the PlayStation 3. BioShock takes players on an underwater adventure through the art deco stylized world called Rapture. Caught between powerful forces and hunted down by genetically mutated citizens, the player will come to grips with the mysterious and fascinating world.

BioShock not only challenges the players’ capacity to adapt and survive, but brings to question their values and commitment to the inhabitants of Rapture. With smart and adaptive AI, no encounter ever plays out the same, while numerous customization options provide gamers with an experience that adapts to their playing style.

BioShock is currently set for an October 2008 release.
