Today it was announced that players can look forward to returning to Rapture later this year in a new two-part story campaign for BioShock Infinite.

The DLC will be set in Rapture on New Year's Eve 1958 and will star both Booker and a grown-up Elizabeth. An interview with Eurogamer revealed that Booker will be a private eye in Rapture who is approached by Elizabeth. The two don't seem to know each other, so it'll be interesting to see what other connections the game will share with BioShock Infinite's story. Don't worry, you'll also encounter Big Daddies as you journey through Rapture.

"Originally we wanted to show Rapture when it was fully alive, but do it in the context of an interesting story, not just go back and talk about Midi-chlorians, you know? To do it in a sort of integrated way, but to tell a story we thought was important to tell with these characters as well," said Irrational Games' creative director Ken Levine.


BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea will be available later this year and is a part of the game's season pass, or you can purchase it for $15/1200 MSP if you'd rather not take the plunge on the season pass.

Additionally, Clash in the Clouds will be available for download today and pits you against waves of Columbia's guard. It doesn't add multiplayer or anything, so you can be prepared to fight through more of BioShock Infinite's particular variety of combat. I wasn't a huge fan of it, so this DLC doesn't really interest me.


Clash in the Clouds is also a part of the season pass, but can be purchased separately for $5/400 MSP.

So, what do you think of Irrational's announcement? Are you excited to be heading back to Rapture? Do you care about facing waves of enemies in Clash in the Clouds?

Honestly, the combat in BioShock Infinite was actually my least favourite aspect. As a result of this fact I'm not incredibly interested in today's DLC, but I'll be keeping my eyes on the story content.
