2K Games has revealed what its secret “Project Icarus” is by announcing players will once again be thrown into the BioShock universe.
Scheduled for a 2012 release, BioShock Infinite, currently in development at Irrational Games for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Games for Windows, is set in 1912, where instead of the underwater utopia of Rapture, players will find themselves in the floating city of Columbia.
“The player assumes the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, sent to the lost city to rescue Elizabeth, a young woman imprisoned there since childhood. He develops 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 must 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.”
