BioShock Ultimate Rapture Edition announced for PS3 and Xbox 360
While naturally some of us here are still upset about BioShock Infinite getting its release date pushed back to March, we have something cool in the meantime to catch us up on the two previous installments.
It has now been announced that the first two games are being re-released together as the “Ultimate Rapture Edition”, which surprisingly will include a ton of content, and some of which that is unique to this edition. This new bundle will be hitting shelves on January 14th (yes, in two weeks) and will only cost $29.99.
Here is what we get:
-
Museum of Orphaned Concepts: Take a tour of a never-before-seen BioShock museum and view early concept art, character models and more set within the halls of Rapture.
-
Plasmids Pack: Includes four additional Plasmids and Gene Tonics—Sonic Boom, EVE Saver, Vending Expert and Machine Buster—for use in BioShock.
-
Challenge Rooms Pack: Previously exclusive to PS3™ and now available for Xbox 360 for the first time, the pack tests the player’s mettle by requiring them to utilize the skills learned while traversing the halls of Rapture to survive three separate puzzle rooms in BioShock.
-
Sinclair Solutions Tester: Contains a number of customization features that allow players to further their character’s development in BioShock 2 multiplayer modes and provides a deeper multiplayer experience.

Set in a new environment, Rapture Central Computing, Minerva’s Den adds a gripping new storyline to extend the BioShock 2 experience.
