Other than the fact this looks like a BioShock game, there’s very little else besides the name that suggests BioShock Infinite is in any way connected to the previous releases. For one, it is set in the airy city of Columbia in 1912, and follows an ex-Pinkerton agent who is attempting to quell a civil war while protecting a young woman who has a bad habit of tearing gigantic holes in the fabric of space and time.

BioShock Infinite is being developed for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC for release in 2012.
