Game Informer article leads to the first batch of details from the eagerly awaited sequel...

With the latest issue of Game Informer gaining the expose on 2K Games' hugely anticipated Bioshock 2, it hasn't taken too long for the customary details to arrive on the net.

Allegedly set seven years after the events of the original, Bioshock 2 casts players in the role of private investigator Jack Abbott.  Following the spate of kidnappings hinted towards on the official game website, the storyline follows Abbott's chase after a Big Sister who has recently taken his friend's daughter.  Following a boat chase, Abbott discovers himself mysteriously waking up in the underwater city of Rapture.

Further details garnished from the article suggest that a solitary Big Sister will replace the Big Daddy's that proliferated the original, whilst Rapture itself has seen a few changes and is now mostly flooded with underwater diving levels coming into play.  The depraved Splicers continue with the appearance of bizarre spliced animals, with dogs and robots coming to the aid of the player. 

Further plot details suggest an invasion from the Soviets who are looking to source the lucrative Adam energy, and will utilise Plasmids against the player.  Speaking of Plasmids, expect plenty more from the sequel with the mention of telepathy and slow-mo coming into play.

Finally it seems the sequel will address one of the few complaints with a new health and revival system coming into play.

Presumably you're talking about the Minerva's Den DLC?

What platform do you have BioShock 2 on? Because the DLC on PC wasn't supposed to launch yesterday. 2K has it down for release "at a later date", although XBox Live and PSN were supposed to get it yesterday.

you wake up in rapture as a prototype big daddy six or seven years after bioshock 1. There will be multiplayer but no co-op play, also there will be people who are not splicers to talk to and do missions for kinda like 'tenambaum' you can wield two weapons now one big daddy weapon like the rivet gun or  'drillfist' <<< (thats what i call it) and a plasmid. there will be a new system for plasmids and there levels. for example level one will be a weak ball of fire or lightning etc level two is a charged plasmid so it can get stronger the longer you charge it, unfortunately this leaves you vulnerable to attack. level three is like a flame thrower of the different plasmids but i think that only aapplies to the fire ice and lightning plasmids

Yo can now also go underwater as you are the big daddy but there is one thing in your way. the big sister. and there will be a new option for the big sister which is to use her so she can harvest ADAM for you. thats most of what i no but i hope it will be helpfull to you guys.
